Djokovic to begin bid for 25th Grand Slam in Brisbane

Novak Djokovic will play at the Brisbane International before he starts his bid to win a 25th Grand Slam at Melbourne’s Australian Open in January.

The 37-year-old, a 10-time winner in Melbourne, is tied with Australian Margaret Court on a record 24 Grand Slam singles titles.

The Serb, ranked seventh in the world, failed to add to his Grand Slam tally during a frustrating 2024.

The tournament in Brisbane, which runs from 29 December until 5 January, is one of the final warm-up events before the Australian Open begins on 12 January.

With 99 ATP titles to his name, Djokovic is aiming to join American Jimmy Connors (109) and Swiss Roger Federer (103) as just the third man in the Open era to win 100 career titles.
