Djokovic wins his 100th ATP Title after dramatic Geneva win

Novak Djokovic, the world’s most successful tennis player, made history Saturday by claiming his 100th title. Hurkacz, from Poland, was defeated in three sets of intense tension.

In the Open Era, only Roger Federer, Jimmy Connors, and other elite players have claimed more than 100 ATP titles. It’s a great way to celebrate another year.

Djokovic’s comeback to the finals in Geneva

Djokovic’s journey wasn’t without bumps. Hurkacz had the upper hand for most of the match. He won the first set by 7-5, and built a lead into the decider. Djokovic, as he has done so many times before, showed his resilience. He clawed his way back, forced two tie-breaks, and eventually sealed victory after just over three hours—making it the longest match of this year’s tournament.

Djokovic acknowledged, “I worked hard for it.” “Hubi probably was closer to winning the match than I was. I was trying to hold on. “I don’t even know how I broke the serve of the opponent, but at the top level, only a few points determine the winner.

Geneva fans got their money’s worth watching world number six, Rafael Nadal, fire six aces as well as 34 winners. Hurkacz who led 4-2 in final set will rue missed opportunities, as Djokovic’s experience won out in the end.

Djokovic reaches ATP Titles 100 and sets longevity record

Djokovic has now become the first person to win a Tour-level title for 20 consecutive years, an incredible feat that shows off his remarkable endurance. In addition, he becomes the oldest winner in Geneva Open’s history. This is another award to add to his already glittering resume.

Djokovic’s last trophy win was at the Paris Olympics in last year. This victory in Geneva could not have come at a better time. As he sets his sights on a 24th Grand Slam title at the French Open—which gets underway on Sunday, he’s once again a name no one can overlook.

Djokovic told a packed stadium, “I’m grateful to have achieved the 100th victory here.” “Incredible game, 7-6 in third with a packed stadium and beautiful atmosphere.”

Djokovic readys himself for Roland Garros after historic victory

Djokovic’s Geneva win extends his head-tohead record against Hurkacz from 8-0 to 8-0. This is a stark reminder of how dominant he still remains at the top. Next? The opening round of Roland Garros will be against American Mackenzie McDonald. Djokovic is confident and has already won a bit of history. He’s likely to add another trophy in Paris.
