PARIS: There's a tennis tournament being played, a Grand Slam, where a smorgasbord of elite players is vying for heavyweight silverware. And then there is Novak Djokovic, shooting for the stars at the French Open. Same field, different realities.
The 36-year-old Serb, who along with Rafael Nadal is joint record-holder, having won 22 major crowns apiece, wants sole ownership. But that's just part of the puzzle Djokovic is looking to complete, number 23 will tie the Roland Garros third seed with American Serena Williams for the Open Era record while a 24th Grand Slam title would help him draw level with Aussie Margaret Court for the all-time count. So, 25 is what Djokovic is aiming for.
