With a Master’s degree in sports journalism, I fell in love with tennis as a child and have always loved reading the great stories of this sport. Today, I want to tell them, enjoy my passion to the fullest and be as close as possible to the aces of the circuit.

The Serb, always hungry, erases his illustrious rivals from the records a little more since this victory allows him to reach 90 victories in New York, one more than Roger Federer. And above all, he becomes the first to pass the 90 mark in each of the Grand Slams.
