Djokovic first rose to No. 1 aged 24 years and 43 days on 4 July 2011, and spent a personal-best 122 consecutive weeks at the summit of the FedEx ATP Rankings between 7 July 2014 and 6 November 2016.
Now aged 34, Djokovic has compiled a 387-53 win-loss record as World No. 1, including a 117-30 mark against Top 10 opponents and a 39-13 record in tour-level finals. Two weeks ago, he captured his ninth Australian Open crown (d. Medvedev), which marked his 18th major title — two shy of all-time leaders Rafael Nadal and Federer (both with 20).

Djokovic is one of 26 players in the history of the FedEx ATP Rankings to hold the top spot (since 23 August 1973). He finished 2020 as year-end No. 1 for the sixth time (also 2011-12, '14-15 and '18), tying the record of Pete Sampras (1993-98).
