Last season, the Serbian only participated in thirteen tournaments. He posted a 39-11 record, winning the ATP 250 tournaments in Geneva and Athens and also reaching the semifinals in all four Grand Slams.
When it comes to Djokovic’s rankings, he finished the year as world number 4 with 330 points less than third-ranked Alexander Zverev. However, it should be noted that the 38-year-old focused mainly on Grand Slams this year, skipping a number of Masters tournaments and the ATP Finals.
Zverev may have the edge over the Serbian, but there is no doubt that the record 24-time Grand Slam champion has been more consistent this year, especially on the biggest stage.
Roddick: Djokovic was a part-time player in 2025 who was still the third best player in the world
“At this stage of the last four, it feels like he could be a top three or four player in the world. That’s Novak Djokovic, right? How do we rate this year against his career? Any year where he doesn’t win a Major is probably disappointing for him. And this year was crazy to watch. He was basically a part-time tennis player who was still the third best player in the world. It’s a joke. It’s incredibly impressive,” Roddick said. his podcast.
Over the past two years, Djokovic has been very open about what is important to him at this stage of his career. The former world number 1 focuses mainly on Grand Slams, the Olympic Games and representing his country in the Davis Cup.
In one of his recent interviews, the 2024 Paris Olympics gold medalist revealed that he would like to stay in shape in the coming years and may choose the Los Angeles Olympics as his retirement spot.
