Djokovic is also halfway to completing the Grand Slam by winning all four majors in the same season. The last man who accomplished that feat, Rod Laver (1962 and 1969), also shared his praise for the Serbian.

Congratulations on winning 23 majors @DjokerNole and cementing your legacy in another command performance at Roland Garros. Your skill and unwavering mental fortitude on all surfaces is astonishing. Kudos to Casper Ruud, who valiantly pushed this great champion all the way. 🚀 https://t.co/vY003Jj6Iu
