He has won 12 in a row, starting from the one where Nadal came back from 2-6 in the 2022 semifinals, a match that ended with Zverev severely injuring his ankle.

The '1-Point Slam' was one of the major attractions in the week leading up to the Australian Open. The event, which concluded with amateur tennis player Jordan Smith winning one million dollars, received high praise both within the circuit and among fans. However, Roland Garros will not adopt this innovative idea. The tournament director Amélie Mauresmo has explained the reasons in a press conference. "We do not seek fame at any cost. This is a trend that does not reflect the essence and authenticity of Roland Garros. We will innovate in other areas."

Lacoste has presented the outfit that Novak Djokovic will wear at Roland Garros 2026, with a noticeable change compared to his color choices in recent years.

The new attire maintains the classic line of the French brand but introduces a different aesthetic on the Parisian clay, where Djokovic will seek to continue expanding his legacy.
