Djokovic became the first tennis player in history to hold the Tour lead for such a long time. On the ATP Tour, the closest competitor in this regard is the Swiss tennis player Roger Federer, who finished his career with 20 victories in Grand Slam tournaments and 310 weeks in first place in the ATP rankings.
It is worth noting that in women’s tennis on the WTA Tour, the longest-reigning world number one was the legendary German tennis player Steffi Graf, a 22-time Grand Slam champion.
