After another major and another series of historic accomplishments, Djokovic tied Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal’s all-time men's singles major titles record.

The 34-year-old has now completed the first three stages of the Calendar-Year Grand Slam by winning the Australian Open, Roland Garros and The Championships.

Djokovic is the first man to triumph at the season's first three majors since Rod Laver claimed all four in 1969. 

 

Serbian star cleaned up his game on Centre Court and used great depth and consistency to emerge victorious after three hours and 23 minutes, falling to the court in celebration after the Italian missed a final backhand slice.
