Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are considered two of the greatest tennis players ever to have graced a tennis court. Their rivalry has captivated millions and revolutionised the sport, with their power, speed and artistry. Djokovic, on the other hand, has not yet received the same kind of adoration as Federer or Nadal, despite the fact he has a winning record against the pair of them. The 31-year-old's head-to-head against Nadal stands 27-25 in favour of the Serb, while Novak leads Federer 24-22.

Early on in Novak's career, the Swiss Maestro and the Spanish bull-fighter had the better of him completely, as the Serbian fell short of the standard required. Nadal and Federer were battling out in Grand Slam finals, whilst Novak remained as the No.3 seed, not doing enough to wrestle the Grand Slams away from the clutches of Federer or Nadal.

Despite his maiden victory ten years ago, Novak still played understudy to the pair for the following three years In 2011, however, the Serb started to establish himself as one of the world's elite, winning three majors in one of the most dominant seasons ever seen. The 31-year-old attributed this success to his altered service motion and his improved gluten-free diet.

To have a winning record against both after playing on so many occasions makes one appreciate the consistency shown by Djokovic between 2011 and 2016, where he defeated the pair consistently on every surface.
