Cilic makes history for Croatian tennis: "This means the whole world to me"

Double record for Marin Cilic after his latest victory at the ATP 500 in Dallas against Learner Tien (7-5, 7-6). At 37 years old, the former US Open champion reached the milestone of 600 wins in his professional career, also becoming the first player from his country to reach such a high number, surpassing Goran Ivanisevic's 599 wins. Colleagues from Tennis Channel were able to interview him.

“For me, it means the whole world. People who know me are aware of the struggles I've gone through in these recent seasons; it has been a great battle to get my body back to this level and play well again. I hadn't been playing well in recent months, but I was competing, so all credit to me for continuing to trust in my abilities,” shared the Medjugorje native.
