Novak Djokovic never ceases to panic the records.
The Serbian, 33, is now in his 311th week at the top of the ATP rankings.
Or one more than Roger Federer.
If we ignore any emotional consideration, the world No. 1 is statistically advancing towards the unofficial title of best player in history ... Here are the figures his main records.
311.
The total number of weeks spent by Djokovic at the world rank since his accession to the throne in July 2011. His longest streak dates back to the period 2014-2016 with 122 consecutive weeks at the top.
The current one is 36 weeks.
Still far from Federer and his 237 ...

Among the rare titles missing from the Belgradois is gold at the Olympic Games.
A reward that is both individual and collective, which is very close to his heart.

Catch-up mission this summer in Tokyo.

Djokovic is No. 1 in his direct confrontations with his two big rivals.
He leads 29-27 against Nadal and 27-23 against Federer.

Small weakness in the prize list, the protégé of Goran Ivanisevic has won "only" five times the Masters at the end of the season.
He still has a short walk to join Federer.
6.
Djokovic has finished six times a season in place of No. 1.
It is already a record, which he shares with Pete Sampras, and which he should soon improve.

By winning the Australian Open in February, “Nole” came within two units of the number of Grand Slams won by Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.
If the Spaniard, 34, can still reign on clay, the Swiss, 39, may have trouble winning a new major coronation.
Despite the competition of the young guard (Medvedev, world No. 2 next week, Thiem, title holder at the US Open or Zverev), the Serbian has the means to catch up with his elders this year.
36.
This is the number of Masters 1000 removed by Djokovic, one unit ahead of Nadal and eight ahead of Federer.
This is already the best, especially since he has won them all at least twice.
Only Monte-Carlo and Cincinnati prevent him from having achieved the treble in each of the nine events that make up the category.
124,400,000.
In euros, the career gains of the Serbian on the circuit.
Nobody has done better and the woolen sock still needs to be filled ...
