Statistic of top three in ATP Ranking that sets Novak Djokovic's longevity apart from the rest

Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic may be among the elder statesmen on tour, but he has shown little sign of slowing down as he continues to maintain a firm grip at the top of the ATP Ranking table.

The 36-year old currently sits at the top of the ATP rankings as World No.1, a position he has held for over 400 combined weeks. Djokovic is unlikely to lose that spot anytime soon, as he doesn't have that many points to defend prior to the 2024 French Open.

The 24-time Grand Slam champion has been a force to be reckoned with on tour, having established himself as a member of the top stars of the ATP since 2007, a year before winning his maiden Grand Slam at the Australian Open. The Serbian has been a fixture in the top 3 players in the world during that period, as his level of player has kept him heads and shoulders above several tennis stars who have long since fallen out of their prime. Below is a list of Djokovic's achievement, showcasing his dominant year-end finishes during his time on tour.
