novak djokovic is the undisputed king of the Australian Open in the men’s division. The Serb is the ultimate winner of this Grand Slam with nine titles. He has triumphed in all the finals he has played. Djokovic is also the tennis player who has won this tournament the most times in a row. He has done it three times in a row on two separate occasions (2011-2013 and 2019-2021).
The Serb won the Australian Open for the first time in the 2008 edition only 20 years old. It was also the first Grand Slam title out of 21 in his career. He had just missed the final of the 2007 US Open. He reached the final of the 2008 Australian Open without dropping a set. In the semi-finals, he rang the bell after eliminating the current two-time champion of the event, Swiss Roger Federer. And in the final he defeated the French Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in four sets with 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 and 7-6 (2).
The Australian Open is the only Grand Slam in which Novak has not lost a final. The opponent who has won the most in the definition of this tournament is the Englishman Andy Murray: He did it four times (2011, 2013, 2015 and 2016). Follow Nadal to two finals (2012 and 2019). The Serb has only had to go all five sets in a final twice: in 2012 against Nadal and in 2020 against Dominic Thiem.
In his last final at the 2021 Australian Open, Djokovic beat the Russian Daniel Medvedev by 7-5, 6-2 and 6-2. He failed to defend his crown at the 2022 Australian Open after the Australian authorities canceled his visa due to his COVID-19 vaccination status.
