This victory ties Djokovic with the legendary Margaret Court for the most Grand Slam singles titles in tennis history. During the trophy ceremony, Djokovic expressed his astonishment at achieving this milestone, stating, “To make the history of this sport is something truly remarkable and special.”
The match itself was a roller-coaster of emotions, with Djokovic battling through fatigue and saving a crucial set point in the second set, which lasted an intense 104 minutes. His ability to stay composed under pressure was evident in a gripping tiebreak, where he clinched victory with a three-point run.
In the third set, Djokovic seemed fresher and broke in consecutive return games to secure his fourth US Open title. Throughout the match, he showcased his versatility by frequently attacking the net, winning 20 of 22 serve-and-volley points and 37 of 44 net points.
With this historic win, Djokovic not only adds to his already impressive list of achievements but also moves ahead of Serena Williams and equals Margaret Court with 24 Grand Slam titles, cementing his status as one of the greatest tennis players of all time.
