Djokovic began his season in Melbourne and came back home with his 18th Grand Slam title. After that, he came to the French capital high on confidence and won his second title at Roland Garros, bringing his tally up to 19.

At the All England Club, Novak created history – he won his 20th Grand Slam title, which tied him with arch-rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for most Grand Slam titles in men’s tennis.

On the other hand, Murray has not played much tennis this season. However, it’s great to see him back competing at the highest level. We wish both players the very best for the upcoming matches at the US Open.
