Novak Djokovic Stats
A return 4.5 points light: Djokovic's season stalls at 15-7
The Drop Shot AI ·
July was the high point; everything since has gone the other way. Three losses have followed the quarterfinal win over Auger-Aliassime at Wimbledon, including a straight-sets semifinal against Jannik Sinner and a five-set first round at the US Open, leaving 2026 at 15-7 with the ranking at ATP No. 5, two below the year's peak.
The return that built the 39-year-old's career has thinned, at 35.8 percent of return points won against 40.3 since 2017. The serve is near standard, at 74 percent of first-serve points won; hard-court winners have fallen behind the errors, 0.91 to 1.
