Ten years have passed since a player not in the “Big Three” won the men’s singles title at the Australian Open.
Novak Djokovic is the king of this court. He has won a record 10 majors here, including four of the last five (he was deported the day before the event in 2022).
He is also the favourite to win the Australian Open again in 2024. Only Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have won the tournament more times since 2015, after the Serbian.
When he beat Nadal in the final in 2014, Stan Wawrinka upset the balance of power. It was the first of his three grand slam wins.
What are the 32 women’s seeds at the 2024 Australian Open? Who has already been ruled out?
Now there is a new group of players who want to win. Carlos Alcaraz, the Wimbledon champion, is leading the way, but players like Jannik Sinner and Holger Rune will also be hoping this is their year.
If Djokovic has anything to say, though, it might be what you thought. The 36-year-old won three of the four majors in 2023, losing only to Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final. This year, he is trying to complete the Golden Slam, with Paris 2024 coming up in the summer.
