Novak Djokovic continues to break tennis records as he looks for his 25th Grand Slam at Wimbledon.

The World No. 6 has looked as impressive as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner at SW19 as he’s soared into the final four.

Djokovic has rolled back the years at Wimbledon, defeating the likes of Dan Evans, Alexandre Muller, and Miomir Kecmanovic.

Djokovic survived a scare against Alex De Minaur, but he was imperious in his quarterfinal match against Flavio Cobolli.

Novak Djokovic has more Wimbledon semi-finals than Roger Federer

Djokovic has the most illustrious CV in tennis, and it got even more impressive after the Serbian’s win against Cobolli.

The World No. 6 secured his fourteenth Wimbledon semi-final, which is more than any other player in history.

Djokovic had previously shared the record with Federer at 13 semi-finals apiece, but the 24-time Grand Slam champion now has the record outright.

After Djokovic praised Federer at Wimbledon, it’s surely a record that the Serbian will hold dear to his heart.

Djokovic plays World No. 1 Sinner in the semi-final in a repeat of the Roland Garros 2025 semi-final in June.

The Italian won that match in straight sets before losing the final to Alcaraz in a five-set classic.

Djokovic and Sinner have played each other eight times outside of their Roland Garros 2025 semi-final in Paris.

The Serbian won four of their first five meetings between 2021 and 2023, including two matches at Wimbledon.

Sinner’s ascension to the top of the ATP Tour rankings has coincided with his dominance over Djokovic in their last four meetings.

The Italian defeated Djokovic at the Davis Cup, the Australian Open, the Shanghai Masters, and Roland Garros.
