German tennis star Alexander Zverev hailed the world no. 1 Novak Djokovic for his incredible achievement of equalling Steffi Graf`s record for most weeks spent as the World No. 1 and said that the Serbian great could break what a few records are left for him in his career. Djokovic has maintained his place at the top of the ATP rankings for 377 weeks, equalling Graf`s record of weeks spent as the World No.1. After his record-breaking 22nd Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open last month, the Serb reclaimed the top spot for the seventh time.
"He`s surpassing Steffi, so as a German, obviously I always loved her having that record, but credits to Novak. I think that shows how great he is," Zverev was quoted as saying by Gulf News. "I`m sure that he`s going to break a few more records, to be honest. I`m not sure there are many left, but the ones that are left, maybe he will."
