Novak Djokovic played in his first major final since winning the U.S. Open in 2023 when he faced Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday in the Australian Open. However, the 22-year-old Spaniard won in four sets to capture his seventh major title and complete the career grand slam.
Djokovic will now have to wait and see if he can still win that elusive 25th major title. His 24 major wins are the most in the Open Era, but he holds a tie with Margaret Court for the all-time record. He’s been chasing that historic mark for a few years now, but Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have been in his way as they’ve won the last nine majors combined.
