Novak Djokovic stands on the cusp of yet another historic achievement as he prepares to compete in the prestigious Monte Carlo Masters. With the possibility of completing a Triple Career Golden Masters within his grasp, Djokovic’s legacy in the world of tennis is set to reach unprecedented heights.
In 2018, Djokovic made history by becoming the first player ever to achieve a Career Golden Masters, a feat accomplished by winning every ATP Masters 1000 event at least once. Two years later, he further solidified his dominance by clinching victory at Cincinnati again, thus achieving a Double Career Golden Masters.
Now, Djokovic finds himself on the brink of rewriting the record books once again. If he emerges victorious at Monte Carlo this week, he will become the first player in tennis history to secure a Triple Career Golden Masters, having won every Masters 1000 event at least three times. Remarkably, Monte Carlo is the only Masters 1000 event where Djokovic hasn’t yet reached this milestone.
Reflecting on the significance of this potential achievement, Djokovic remains focused on the task at hand while acknowledging the challenges ahead. In his pre-tournament press conference, he downplayed expectations, stating, “My expectations are not very high, to be honest, just because the way I was playing this year… For me, it’s really about building my game on clay courts and trying to reach that peak again in Paris—that’s where I want to play my best tennis.”
Despite his modest expectations, Djokovic expressed his excitement for the event, emphasizing his deep connection to Monte Carlo. “I always love playing in Monte Carlo. It’s been a residence of mine for many years. Both of my children are born in Monte Carlo, so I really consider it a home,” he shared.
