Which Serbian player owns the men's singles record with 10 Australian Open titles?

Novak Djokovic owns the men’s singles record with 10 Australian Open titles.

The Serbian won his first Australian Open in 2008, defeating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the final. He then built the record through titles in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2023. His total remains the tournament’s Open Era record.

Djokovic’s three-title runs from 2011 through 2013 and from 2019 through 2021 also made him the first man to win three consecutive Australian Open championships in the Open Era. His success has made Melbourne one of the defining stages of his career.

A common mix-up is using the all-time men’s record without separating eras. Roy Emerson won six Australian Championships titles before professional and amateur players competed together in the Open Era. Djokovic’s 10 is the overall men’s singles record because it exceeds Emerson’s amateur-era mark and every other player’s total.
