Novak Djokovic

Djokovic is quite possibly the greatest hard-court player of all time. He has won 10 majors on hard-courts, a feat bettered only by Roger Federer. However, one has to keep in mind that Djokovic’s career started well after Federer’s and therefore, the former has a better winning ratio.

He has also managed to win nearly 85% of his career matches and even Federer has an inferior overall winning ratio. In all, Djokovic has won 13 Grand Slams till date and this number could easily go up further. He also has the unique record of holding all the Grand Slam titles at once.

Djokovic’s game is built upon solid baseline play and he also has the best groundstrokes of all time. His court coverage is absolutely superb too and he almost always manages to reach the ball with his magnificent slides. Djokovic, however, does not boast of a great serve and it explains his relatively inferior record on grass.

The fact that he has still managed to win 2 Wimbledon titles speaks volumes of the other facets of his game. Overall, Djokovic has won 70 career singles titles including 31 ATP Masters titles.
