Novak Djokovic has reached his 52nd Grand Slam singles semi-final, equalling Chris Evert for the most appearances by any player—male or female—in the Open Era. The achievement came after his four-set victory over Flavio Cobolli at Wimbledon 2025, marking yet another chapter in the Serbian’s extraordinary career.
Wimbledon Legacy Grows Stronger
With this win, Djokovic also secured his 14th semi-final appearance at Wimbledon, surpassing Roger Federer’s previous record of 13. At 38 years old, he continues to defy expectations, adapting his game to remain competitive on grass courts. His evolution from a baseline specialist to a versatile all-surface contender has been key to his longevity.
A Rivalry Rekindled
Djokovic’s next challenge will be world No. 1 Jannik Sinner, a rising star who has defeated him in their last four encounters. Their upcoming semi-final clash is a rematch of the 2023 Wimbledon semi-final, where Djokovic prevailed in straight sets. With Sinner’s current form and Djokovic’s experience, the match promises high drama.
Age Is Just a Number
Despite being the oldest men’s semi-finalist at Wimbledon since Ken Rosewall in 1974, Djokovic shows no signs of slowing down. His ability to recover from setbacks, adjust tactics mid-match, and maintain peak physical condition continues to set him apart from his peers.
Eyes on a Record-Breaking Title
If Djokovic advances to the final and wins, he will claim his 25th Grand Slam title, breaking his tie with Margaret Court for the most major singles titles in history. Standing between him and that milestone are formidable opponents, but his track record suggests he’s more than capable of rising to the occasion.
