Mike Tyson Shares His Excitement As Novak Djokovic Clinches Memorable Win At Rolando Garros Finale
These accomplishments at his age have just increased his greatness, as he still covers the court with greater flexibility and ease than most players at their physical peak. At 36 years and 20 days old, Djokovic is officially the oldest singles victor at Roland Garros in record-keeping. In addition, he has a 21-match grand slam winning streak after winning the last three grand slam events he has played in. He missed the US Open in 2017 because the country forbade unvaccinated guests from entering.
While Djokovic had a shaky start to the match, Ruud vaporised his forehand as he claimed an early break. He blasted forehands and missed overheads while playing lazily. But one advantage of being Djokovic is that he is seldom without options. Before regaining the early break, he dug in and relied on his legs as he took a succession of stinging forehands from Ruud.
