Wimbledon 2023: Novak Djokovic continued his dominance at Wimbledon on Sunday, defeating Cameron Norrie in straight sets to claim his eighth title at the All England Club. The Serbian superstar has now won 22 Grand Slam singles titles overall, moving him one behind Rafael Nadal for the most in history.
Djokovic’s performance in Wimbledon this year was nothing short of masterful. He dropped just one set in the entire tournament, and his victory over Norrie was his 32nd consecutive win on grass. The 35-year-old is now the oldest man to win Wimbledon since Roger Federer in 2017.
Djokovic’s victory was also a major statement in the GOAT debate. He has now won four of the last five Grand Slams, and he is the clear favorite to win the US Open later this year. If he can do that, he will be well on his way to breaking Nadal’s record.
Djokovic’s performance in Wimbledon was also a testament to his mental toughness. He had to overcome a number of challenges this year, including a positive COVID-19 test that forced him to miss the Australian Open. But he never wavered, and he always found a way to win.
