World No. 1 Novak Djokovic has been the most dominant men’s player in the past decade. The success enjoyed by the Serb over recent years has been phenomenal. 16 of his staggering 17 Grand Slams have been won over the last 10 years. The transformation Novak has brought about in his game will be used to educate young tennis aspirants in the future.

Djokovic’s greatness stems from the fact that he has established an identity for himself with the likes of Roger and Rafa around. His fitness has been his biggest strength which has helped him win those long marathon matches. Many times, after a 3-4 hour long match, Djokovic still looks ready for another match.
