Novak Djokovic has won the Australian Open a record 10 times, a number that his latest rivals — Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner — will find difficult to match up to. Just as they still have a long way to go to catch up with the Serb’s 24 grand slam titles. But when the first grand slam of the year starts on Sunday, Djokovic will have to contend with the ‘Sincaraz’ tide, and he knows it will not be an easy task. Alcaraz and Sinner, the two top-ranked players in the world, having taken over that position. And he would surely be keen to snatch the 25th title that would break the tie that he has with Margaret Court and establish him as the player with the highest number of grand slam titles.
