The Serbian’s impressive performance also saw him achieve another milestone: his 150th Grand Slam win since turning 30, a feat only previously accomplished by Serena Williams.

Djokovic’s Australian Open success is further underscored by his remarkable 96-9 win-loss record at the tournament. His overall Australian Open win ratio has improved since turning 30, unlike Federer and Williams.
