With this victory, Djokovic regained the No. 1 spot in the ATP rankings and extended his impressive winning streak at the hard-court tournament to 28 matches.

His 10 trophies from the Australian Open are a record in themselves, and his 22 major championships, including seven from Wimbledon, three from the U.S. Open, and two from the French Open, tie him with Rafael Nadal for the most major championships won by a man in tennis history.
