Novak Djokovic will end 2022 with more Grand Slam titles than Roger Federer and it is highly likely that he will surpass The Swiss Maestro in other aspects like win-loss record but it is unlikely that Novak will reach 100+ titles like Federer did.
This year, 2022, started in a controversial way for him, as due to Covid-19 restrictions and vaccinations he was unable to play during the 2022 Australian Open and the worst thing was the Australia Border Force detained Djokovic for several days.
Aside from not being able to play in Australia, he didn’t play during the 2022 US Open due to the same vaccination issue. Despite missing two Grand Slam tournaments he won Wimbledon in England.
