How they play

Novak Djokovic set the men’s record with 24 Grand Slam singles titles and completed the career Golden Slam with gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He is a complete competitor who remained at the top for an exceptional span.

Deep returns and flexible court coverage bring even a strong serve back to neutral. His two-handed backhand hides direction and acts as the link between defense and attack.

Djokovic won both tiebreaks against Alcaraz to complete the career Golden Slam. His changes of return position and direction on important points are particularly clear.

What to watch

If you are new to this player

On return, watch him place a stable racquet face in front of the ball instead of taking a large swing.
Even when stretched, notice how one deep ball can restore the rally instead of forcing an immediate winner.

For a closer look

Against second serves, track how often he steps inside the baseline and takes the first attacking opportunity.
Before a backhand down the line, note how long he fixes the opponent’s position with crosscourt exchanges.
