The year 2026 could, once again, be synonymous with records for Novak Djokovic. Always in search of a 25th Grand Slam title, the Serbian would become, in case of victory, the oldest player in the Open era to win a Major.
Already a winner of two tournaments in 2025 and a semi-finalist in all four Grand Slams, the former world number 1 could also dominate two very specific statistics if he maintains his remarkable consistency.
Two Federer records in sight
This season, Djokovic has already surpassed Roger Federer in number of weeks in the world top 4, reaching 808 weeks (ongoing series) compared to 804 for the Swiss.
And the Serbian could still dethrone his old rival in two other categories: he only needs 15 more weeks in the top 5, and 45 additional weeks in the top 10, to become the top record holder in these two rankings.
Djokovic would thus become the record holder for weeks as world number 1, but also in the top 2, top 3, top 4, top 5 and top 10.
Goals that seem widely within reach, as long as he repeats a season of the same caliber as the one he just achieved.
