Djokovic is still looking to claim his elusive 25th Grand Slam, which would make him the most successful tennis player - male or female - in history. However, he hasn't added to his 99 ATP titles since the end of the 2023 season when he triumphed over Jannik Sinner at the ATP Finals.

Novak Djokovic's start to the season has been very different from expectations. It is true that the Serbian legend reached the semifinals at the 2025 Australian Open – after achieving a titanic feat against Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals – but he had a new injury that forced him to retire during his match against Alexander Zverev.

Novak Djokovic was beaten by Botic van de Zandschulp in the third round of the Indian Wells Masters on Saturday and the Serbian was not happy with the court surfaces.
