Novak Djokovic has made it very clear at Wimbledon that few players in the history of tennis handle high-demand matches better. The Serb defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime in the quarterfinals after a battle of 5 hours and 15 minutes, a victory that not only secured his spot in the semifinals but also highlighted a statistic as surprising as revealing.

With this latest match, Djokovic has now played five matches that surpassed the five-hour mark throughout his entire career. The data becomes even more spectacular when realizing that the record is perfect: five matches, five victories. None of those marathons ended in defeat for the winner of 24 Grand Slam titles, reflecting his extraordinary physical and mental strength when matches reach their limit.

Novak Djokovic, a specialist in surviving marathons

The list began at Wimbledon 2007, when he defeated Marcos Baghdatis after exactly five hours of play. That was the first sign of a resilience that years later would reach its peak in the unforgettable final of the Australian Open 2012 against Rafael Nadal, the longest match in the history of Grand Slam finals, resolved by Djokovic after 5 hours and 53 minutes.

He also defeated the Spaniard in the Wimbledon 2018 semifinals after another 5 hours and 15 minutes, as well as overcoming Stan Wawrinka at the Australian Open 2013 after 5 hours and 2 minutes. Now, almost two decades after that first battle against Baghdatis, the Serb adds a new chapter to this collection of marathons with his triumph over Auger-Aliassime.

There are statistics that help explain a career, and this is one of them. When matches become a test of survival, Djokovic has shown time and again that hardly anyone handles it better than him.
