Novak Djokovic is now older than the winner of any Grand Slam singles title in 57 years of Open era tennis.

Four months shy of his 38th birthday, Djokovic will spend January trying to win an 11th Australian Open title.

It would be a 25th Grand Slam title – more than anyone in history. Margaret Court’s record is effectively the only one he has left to break.

“You can never count him out if everything goes right,” six-time Grand Slam champion Stefan Edberg told BBC Sport.

“My personal view is his best chance is the Australian Open or possibly Wimbledon, with all the experience he has on grass.

“Everything needs to go for him – he’s a year older and hasn’t played so many matches over the last six months.”
