24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic has called 2023 one of his best years in his career. Djokovic ends the year as the world number 1, having become the player with the most Grand Slam titles in the history of the sport.

Djokovic clinched three Grand Slam titles to break Rafael Nadal’s record for the Majors won by a men’s player, while going level with Margaret Court to become the player with most Grand Slams. The Serb won the Australian Open, Roland Garros and the US Open while losing to Carlos Alcaraz in the final of Wimbledon.

As quoted by Eurosport, Djokovic called 2023 one of his best season while saying that he won more matches in some of the other seasons. This is the fourth time that Djokovic won three of the four Grand Slam titles, achieving the feat in 2011, 2015 and 2021.

“One of the best years. I wouldn’t say the best, but one of the best. It’s definitely one of the best seasons. I had a couple of years, I think three times, that I won three out of four Slams in a season in those years, I won more matches. I mean, I played more tournaments. I was really feeling very dominant on the tour. It’s quite different circumstances this year comparing to all the other years because I played, what, 10, 11 tournaments this year,” said Djokovic.

He went on to say that he managed to peak at the right time, adding that he’s been feeling great on the court. Djokovic last lost a match against Alcaraz in the final of Wimbledon, way back in July.

“I just managed to peak at the right tournaments, at the right time. That’s what matters to me really. I mean, Grand Slam season, one of the best for sure. Overall, especially in the last couple months, I haven’t lost a match since Wimbledon. So, I’ve been feeling great on the court and playing really well. But it’s hard to compare,” Djokovic added.

Djokovic ended the year with 56 wins and seven losses, while winning seven ATP titles and three Grand Slams.
