Novak Djokovic is at his very best in the hard courts, and it is no surprise that he has won three US Open titles till date.

His latest win came in 2018. Fresh from winning his fourth Wimbledon crown and first Major in over two years, Djokovic was looking to usurp Rafael Nadal from the top of the ATP charts.

He came into the tournament oozing with confidence after winning the Cincinnati Masters, enabling him to become the only man in ATP history to have won all nine ATP Masters 1000 events.

Djokovic was only the sixth seed. He was stretched to four sets in his opening two matches but managed to win them comfortably.

From then onwards, it was pretty much plain-sailing, as Djokovic scalped his remaining opponents in straight sets to win his third US Open title at the age of 31 years, 109 days.
