Novak Djokovic is set to return to Melbourne Park in pursuit of another Australian Open victory, attempting to surpass Margaret Court and become the holder of the most Grand Slam singles titles. Despite recent dominance by young stars like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, Djokovic's mental toughness and experience make him a formidable competitor.

Djokovic, who turns 39 in May, continues to face challenges both physically and from the burgeoning 'Sincaraz' era. Having reached the semi-finals in all major tournaments in 2025 but failing to advance to the finals, Djokovic acknowledged the high level of play from his younger rivals.

With support from a large Serbian community in Melbourne and 10 Australian Open titles already in his repertoire, Djokovic is determined to prove why he's considered one of tennis's greats. Tournament director Craig Tiley reassured fans of Djokovic's participation, further stating the player's intention to compete until at least the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
