The Australian Open is a special tournament for Novak Djokovic. It is the first Grand Slam he won, in 2008 against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, and also the one he has won the most: ten times.

By participating in the 2026 edition, the Serbian is about to equal a record held by Roger Federer and also Feliciano Lopez: that of the most Grand Slam tournament participations.

For now, the Swiss and the Spaniard have 81 participations compared to 80 for Djokovic.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.
