Novak Djokovic achieved his 100th career singles title at the Geneva Open by defeating Hubert Hurkacz in a closely contested match lasting over three hours. This victory, which came two days after his 38th birthday, marks a significant milestone as he joins the elite group of male players with 100 titles in the Open era. After a challenging period with two previous final losses, Djokovic expressed gratitude for clinching the title and prepares for his next match in the French Open, aiming to extend his Grand Slam record.
I'm just grateful to clinch the 100 here. I had to work for it, that is for sure.
Hubert was probably closer to the victory the entire match than I was. I don't know how I broke his serve.
Djokovic's 100th singles title came nearly 19 years after the first in July 2006.
He is the first man in the Open era to win a title in 20 different seasons.
