Novak Djokovic (38, Serbia), ranked seventh in the men's tennis world, will try to win 25 games, the most in a major tournament ever, at the Australian Open of "榮辱."

Djokovic will participate in the Australian Open, this season's first major competition, which kicks off in Melbourne, Australia on Sunday. Having achieved the "career golden grand slam" (winning the four major competitions and the Olympics) in men's singles at the Paris Olympics last year, Djokovic will set a new record of winning the most major competitions between men and women. He has 24 wins in major competitions so far. It is the largest number in men's and women's competition in history, and is tied with Margaret Court of Australia (aged 83).

For Djokovic, the Australian Open is a competition of honor and disgrace. Djokovic has been strong enough to win 10 of his 24 major championships at the Australian Open. However, he was deported in 2022 for not getting the COVID-19 vaccine. Except for 2022, Djokovic won three titles from 2020 to 2023.

If Djokovic wins, he will be able to lift his 100th trophy in the men's singles at the international stage. Djokovic has appointed Andy Murray of the U.K., his rival, as his coach and is exerting strong enthusiasm for the victory. 스포츠토토

There are mixed views on Djokovic's chances of winning the championship. This is because Djokovic won the top prize at the Paris Olympics last year, but was no longer a winner at the four major championships. Djokovic's most recent major championship is the 2023 U.S. Open.

In order to win the Australian Open this year, he needs to overcome Jannik Sinner of Italy and Carlos Alcaras of Spain, who were born in the 2000s. Djokovic lost to Sinner in the semifinals of the championship last year, failing to advance to the final. Among the four major championships, Alcaras has not won a title at the Australian Open alone. If Alcaras wins the championship, he will be the youngest male player to achieve a career Grand Slam since 1968, when professional players were allowed to participate in major championships. The previous record was 24 years old, which was set by Rafael Nadal of Spain in 2010.
