Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray met 36 times in their careers with the Serb boasting an overwhelming 25-11 lead. They met in seven Grand Slam finals where the Serb is ahead 5-2. Their first meeting came at the 2006 Madrid Masters where the World No. 2 prevailed and their final meeting came in the final in Doha in 2017 where the Serb prevailed as well.

The two men were a part of the Big 4, a group which included Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal as well. The four men dominated tennis for nearly a decade, and though the Brit doesn't have similar numbers as the other three, he still boasts an illustrious career in which he has been the World No. 1, three Grand Slams, 14 Masters 1000, and many other accolades.

Andy Murray is also the only man to have won two Gold medals in men's singles at the Olympics, an accolade the Serb is still on the hunt for. Murray defeated Djokovic, en route to his 2012 Gold medal ousting him in the semifinals.
