Tennis The Serbian tennis player surpasses the 310 weeks of Roger Federer
Novak Djokovic is aware that he has had a bad end to the season. On a hard court under cover, your favorite habitat, He has barely achieved a quarter of the Vienna Open 500, yielding to Italian Lorenzo Sonego, and the semi-finals of the London Masters Cup to Dominic Thiem.
The same tennis player who was undefeated on his return from competition in August, in the USTA-set up bubble in New York, says goodbye to 2020 with four defeats and sharing the cap of won matches (41) with Andrey Rublev. The Russian has taken the lead in titles: five for him and four for Nole.
The Serbian seems different since his disqualification at the US Open for giving a fortuitous blow to a linesman. However, aided by the freezing of the ranking until March due to the pandemic, He has made sure to surpass Roger Federer’s record of weeks as world number one on March 8.
The Swiss left him at 310 and the tennis player from Belgrade, right now with 301, leave that figure behind to bring one more brand to your resume. He is also the player with the most 1,000 Masters trophies, with 36.
Rafael Nadal, his most immediate pursuer, It is impossible to overtake Nole because the income between them is 2,180 points and the Spaniard could only add a maximum of 1,640 in case of winning the next Australian Open.
Nor will Dominic Thiem have a choice even if he wins the Masters today. The Austrian will stay 2,405 points behind the Serbian and has a margin of 800 points to add in the first big of the calendar as finalist of the last edition.
The cap of weeks at the top of the men’s circuit is one of the two records that Djokovic chases along with the highest number of ‘Grand Slam’ crowns. In that ranking, he remains third, with three ropes behind Nadal and Federer, with 20.
