Starting his fifth stint at No. 1 after winning a record-extending 8th Australian Open title, Djokovic marked his return to the Dubai Open with a straight sets win over Tunisia's Malek Jaziri. In the process, the 32-year-old Serb recorded his 350th win as a No. 1 ranked player.

Djokovic marked his 400th match as World No. 1 by beating German veteran Philipp Kohlschreiber in straight sets to reach the Dubai quarterfinals.

Djokovic's win % of 87.78 as World No. 1 is bettered by five other players in the all-time list, but only three other players have more wins as No. 1 than the 17-time Grand Slam champion.
