Former British No.1 has sparked a fresh debate in the tennis world by suggesting that Novak Djokovic’s era of Grand Slam dominance might finally be over. The 37-year-old Serbian, who has won a record 24 major titles, has long been regarded as one of the greatest players in history. However, the former British star believes that the physical and mental demands of competing at the highest level may now be catching up with him.
“Djokovic is undoubtedly a legend of the sport, but I think we’ve seen the peak of his Grand Slam success,” the ex-British ace said in a recent interview. “Younger players like Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have brought an intensity and energy that even Djokovic is struggling to contain. He’s still a threat, but in terms of winning more Slams, I believe that chapter is closing.”
Djokovic’s 2024 season has already been marked by injury concerns and shock defeats against rising stars. His exits from major tournaments have fueled speculation that the torch has officially been passed to the next generation.

While many tennis fans are not ready to count him out just yet—given his history of silencing critics—the remark has stirred conversations about whether Djokovic can continue matching his past dominance in the sport.
Despite the doubts, Djokovic himself has remained calm and focused, stating earlier this year that his motivation is still intact. “As long as I feel healthy and competitive, I’ll keep going,” he had said.
For now, the tennis world remains divided—can the legend defy age and expectations once again, or has the curtain truly fallen on Djokovic’s Grand Slam-winning days?
