However, none may be as monumental as this one for the 36-year-old from Serbia.

Djokovic has the chance to win his second major of the calendar year after winning the Australian Open for the 10th time in January. He has won the French Open twice – the last time in 2021 after he won his ninth Australian Open. Can Djokovic become the new record holder or will Ruud finally break through and raise The Mousquetaires Cup?
