19 years and 108 days, 20 countries, Federer: The key numbers from Djokovic's victory in Athens
Novak Djokovic continues to push the boundaries of what is possible. By winning the ATP 250 tournament in Athens, the Serb has improved upon already unbelievable statistics.
Indeed, on its X account, Jeu, Set et Maths revealed a whole range of different statistics, which speak volumes about the legacy the Serb is building.
19 years and 108 days is the gap between Novak Djokovic's latest (Athens) and first ATP title (Amersfoort).
At 38 years old, he places behind France's Gaël Monfils (19 years and 157 days) but ahead of Federer (18 years and 265 days) and Nadal (17 years and 294 days). A feat that speaks volumes about the exceptional longevity of the record holder for Grand Slam titles.
But that's not all, as Djokovic further solidifies his place as the 3rd oldest player in the Open Era to win a title on the ATP Tour (at 38 years and 170 days). Behind Pancho Gonzales (43 years and 273 days, 1972) and Ken Rosewall (43 years and 11 days, 1977).
Finally, "Nole" has become the first player since 1990 to have won at least one title in 20 different countries, surpassing his Big Four colleagues: Federer (19), Nadal (18), and Murray (18).
