Can anybody stop Novak Djokovic from winning 30 majors?
We're here in the United States on championship Sunday, and on the other side of the world guess what happened? Novak Djokovic won the Australian Open. Who could have seen this coming? Poor Stefanos Tsitsipas made another valiant effort, maybe a little bit less valiant than last time, but it was not even close to enough. He lost in straight sets. 3-6, 6-7, 6-7. Can you fault him, though? Nobody has managed to beat Djokovic at this tournament in a long time.
So, the match isn't really the notable thing here. We've got to talk about records and boy, does it look like Novak Djokovic is going to shatter every single one of them. He has 22 majors now—as many as Rafa Nadal and two more than Roger Federer. He is the only active and healthy player out of the three. It doesn't really seem like any of the younger players on tour are going to be able to stop him.
But this is just extraordinary. Djokovic won his first Australian Open 15 years ago. And he dropped fewer sets at age 35 than he did at age 20.Yeah, this is just hilarious at this point. I wasn't even in high school when he won that tournament. George W. Bush was still president then.So, it's clear that he's going to win this GOAT derby. So now the question becomes: where does this thing end? You said 30. That doesn't sound so far fetched.
