Tennis legend Mats Wilander has backed Novak Djokovic to win his ninth Australian Open title this year. The seven-time Grand Slam champion said he’d be surprised not to see the Serb on the champion’s podium at the Melbourne Park this year as he would be “very, very hard” to beat. NOVAK DJOKOVIC IN THE RACE FOR MOST GRAND SLAMS WITH FEDERER AND NADAL With 17 Grand Slam titles under his belt, Djokovic is in the race with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for the most number of Major trophies in the men’s game. Federer and Nadal are currently tied at the top, with 20 titles apiece. In an interview to a Hungarian publication, the Swede said that if Djokovic has to catch up with his peers in the Grand Slam race and, possibly overtake them, he would have to “make a big deal this year”.

(Photo by Justin Setterfield/Getty Images) “I would be surprised if Novak didn’t win over the men, it would be very, very hard to beat him,” Wilander said. He added that it wouldn’t be easy for him to win titles in the coming years as a next generation of superstars are snapping at his heels, bidding to put an end to the Big Three’s hold on Grand Slams.

Reigning US Open champion Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dominic-thiem/] leads the next line of superstars, which also includes Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev, Diego Schwartzman, Jannik Sinner and Stefanos Tsitsipas, among others.

Adventurous Spot [https://www.essentiallysports.com/watch-novak-djokovic-shares-greetings-for-new-year-from-an-adventurous-spot-atp-tennis-news/] The two might well set up another meeting at the grand final at Melbourne Park this year.

<h2><strong>Australian Open: Latest News, Results and Records</strong></h2>
The Australian Open is the youngest of all the Grand Slams, having first started in 1905.

The tournament holds the record for the highest attendance at a Grand Slam event, where 743,667 people attended during the 2018 edition of the Australian Open. It also has the honor of being the first Grand Slam tournament to feature indoor play during wet weather or extreme heat.

There are three main courts, the Rod Laver Arena, the Melbourne Arena and the Margaret Court Arena. Aside from that, they have courts 7 to 15 and even court 19 and 20. The tournament first became open to all from 1969 onwards, a year after the remaining 3 did so.

Rafael Nadal

Rafael Nadal: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more Who is Rafael Nadal?  Rafael Nadal is undoubtedly one of the best tennis players of all time. The Spaniard, along with Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer, forms the famed triumvirate of the &#8216;Big Three&#8217; in tennis. Another accolade that Rafa has to his name is the title, &#8220;King of Clay&#8221;. Rafael Nadal&#8217;s family includes his parents Sebastian Nadal and Maria Parera, his sister Maria Isabel, and his uncles Toni Nadal and Miguel Angel Nadal Homar. Rafael Nadal’s Early Life  Rafael Nadal Parera was born on June 3, 1986, to parents Ana Maria Parera Femenias and Sebastian Nadal Homar in Manacor, Mallorca, Spain. His father is a successful businessman who owns the restaurant Sa Punta, the glass and window company, Vidres Mallorca, and three insurance companies. Mara Parera was a trader who was in the business of selling perfumes. However, she left her job and became a homemaker soon after Nadal was born. The 22-time Grand Slam champion has a younger sister, María Isabel Nadal. Tennis &#8211; Wimbledon &#8211; All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, London, Britain &#8211; July 2, 2022 Spain&#8217;s Rafael Nadal reacts during his third round match against Italy&#8217;s Lorenzo Sonego REUTERS/Matthew Childs When Nadal was three years old, his uncle and tennis coach, Toni Nadal, introduced him to the sport and worked with him from 2005 to 2017. Toni saw in his nephew a natural talent and believed that Rafa should put effort into the racket sport. At the age of 8, Nadal was playing both soccer and tennis. In the racket sport, he transitioned to a left-handed forehand when encouraged by his uncle, despite being right-hand dominant. Toni Nadal also intensified his nephew&#8217;s training at this age. At 12, he was still playing tennis and soccer. In tennis, he won the European and Spanish championships. However, his schoolwork saw a significant drop due to both sports, so his father made him choose one sport. Rafa chose tennis and has pursued it ever since. Rafael Nadal’s Wife and Children Rafael Nadal married his long-time girlfriend, Maria Francisca &#8220;Xisca&#8221; Perello, on October 19, 2019. The two have been in a relationship since 2005 and Xisca is an insurance worker and is also the current director of the Rafael Nadal Foundation. One can only rarely find Xisca in Rafael Nadal&#8217;s box during his matches. She is a private person and doesn&#8217;t like the world to get to know much about her. Xisca feels that her presence would disrupt the Spaniard&#8217;s focus. Rafael Nadal met his wife, Mery &#8220;Xisxa&#8221; Perell in 2005. While there is no confirmed news, some reports suggest that they met through family friends. However, details about their life together are seldom found online as they prefer to keep a low profile. Nadal and Perell announced they were going to have a child together in June 2022. When he eventually graced the world, the couple decided to name him Rafael Nadal Jr. Rafael Nadal’s Net Worth 2024 (Update) As of early 2024, Rafael Nadal&#8217;s estimated net worth is $200 million. About all-time tennis prize money earned, he is ranked No. 2 after an exceptionally successful career. South Korea&#8217;s second-largest automobile manufacturer, Kia, has been sponsoring him as its global ambassador since 2006. Apart from Kia, American clothing and footwear company Nike also sponsors Nadal. Spanish biscuits and bakery manufacturer, Quely also made him its international ambassador in 2010. Nadal sports a luxury watch from Richard Mille as part of an endorsement deal. Rafael Nadal&#8217;s watch is one of the most premium watches out there, with a hefty $725,000 value.

He has a sumptuous car collection and a luxurious home in Mallorca, Spain. Nadal also has expensive villas in Porto Cristo in Spain &amp; the Dominican Republic. He likes to spend his holidays in his villas and luxurious yachts. He has also opened the Rafael Nadal Academy in his hometown in Spain, Kuwait, and Mexico. His logo is one of the most renowned logos in the world, with a stylized version of a bull. Rafael Nadal’s Career &amp; Record The tennis icon from Spain dismantled the likes of Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic in several Grand Slam finals over the past couple of decades. By winning the 2020 French Open title, Nadal equaled Roger Federer&#8217;s record of the most Grand Slam titles at 20. A year later, in 2021, Novak Djokovic also joined Federer and Nadal when he won his 20th major title at Wimbledon by defeating Matteo Berrettini in the final. The 2022 season saw Nadal emerging triumphant in the tally of major titles as he won the Australian Open and the French Open, bringing his total up to 22. Djokovic tied his record this year after winning the Australian Open. So far, the Spaniard has won 14 French Opens, two Australian Open, two Wimbledon Championships, and four US Open titles. Tennis &#8211; French Open &#8211; Roland Garros, Paris, France &#8211; June 5, 2022 Spain&#8217;s Rafael Nadal celebrates with trophy after winning the men&#8217;s singles final against Norway&#8217;s Casper Ruud REUTERS/Benoit Tessier The King of Clay has also clinched a gold medal at the Summer Olympics. In 2008, Nadal defeated Fernando Gonzalez with a score of 6-3, 7-6(2), 6-3 in the final to win his only medal at the Olympics. Along with his impressive wins, Nadal has set many records that will likely be untouched for a few more decades. He is the only player to have won 112 matches in one Grand Slam. He has only lost to two players in Roland Garros, Robin Sterling and Novak Djokovic. The Spaniard is the only player to have maintained a stance in the top 10 for 912 weeks. Rafael Nadal’s Academy Considered one of the leading sports centers in the world for tennis, the Rafa Nadal Academy was launched in the year 2016 in Manacor, Spain. The academy was built to provide high-class facilities to aspiring tennis enthusiasts who want to make it big on the big stage. The inaugural event for the academy was attended by Nadal&#8217;s good friend Roger Federer and other tennis stars. Three years after its initial setup, the academy got permission for expansion. Cities like Mexico and Greece now have the Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre. Rafael Nadal’s Partnerships and Endorsements Nadal has endorsement deals and brand partnerships galore, the most profitable of which seems to be with Nike. Nike and Rafael Nadal have been collaborators since the Spanish player&#8217;s inception, and the renowned brand has helped him achieve a number of his characteristic appearances. The Raging Bull trademark, which is featured on a variety of gear items available for public purchase in addition to custom-made clothes for Rafael Nadal, is owned by Nike. Although the Raging Bull sign is commonly regarded as Rafael Nadal&#8217;s logo, Nike is the company that owns the trademark. The now-famous Raging Bull emblem was initially observed on Rafael Nadal in 2013. It was typically shown most clearly on his right breast, with the Nike logo covering his left. Despite his modesty, Nike values their relationship with Rafael Nadal greatly and pays him around $10 million annually. In addition, Santander, Emporio Armani, Babolat, Heliocare, Telefonica, Banco Sabadell, Tommy Hilfiger, Mapfre, and upscale wristwatch Richard Mille are among Nadal&#8217;s sponsors. According to the most recent estimations, Rafael Nadal&#8217;s net worth is roughly $220 million, with the majority of his income coming from prize money won on the ATP Tour. Since way back in 2006, he has represented South Korean automaker Kia as a brand ambassador. Rafael Nadal’s Stats Rafa has been a shining star ever since he turned professional. He played his first ATP match on April 29, 2002. At the age of 15 years and 330 days, Nadal became one of the youngest players to win their debut ATP match. He faced Ramon Delgado and triumphed in straight sets of 6-4, 6-4. Ever since then, he has become one of the best in the sport. He would go on to not only face his major rival Roger Federer in their first match-up but also win against the Swiss Maestro. They met in the 2004 Miami Masters and set the tone for their rivalry, as he ended up with the upper hand in their head-to-head. Nadal has won 24 out of their 40 matches.

Rafael Nadal vs. Novak Djokovic: Head-to-Head after 2021 One of the most intense rivalries on the ATP tour, Nadal and Djokovic, always ensure to put their best foot forward while playing against each other, irrespective of the venue. The duo met a couple of times in 2021, with Nadal winning their match-up in Rome Finals while Djokovic won the most important French Open semi-final contest and later went on to win the title. Nadal exacted revenge in the 2022 version, as he ousted his archrival in the quarterfinals of the French Open. It paved the way for the &#8216;King of Clay&#8217; to clinch his record 14th Roland Garros title. Rafael Nadal’s French Open dominance Having familiarized himself with red dirt during his initial days, Nadal mastered the surface and even developed his game initially to suit the clay. The Spaniard likes to stay on the point by pushing the opponent from corner to corner and there is no better surface than clay to do that. Coming to Nadal&#8217;s French Open record, he has amassed a total of 14 titles in Paris, the highest by any player on tour. The Spaniard&#8217;s first French Open crown came in 2005 when he surprised top-seed Federer in the semis.

Rafael Nadal’s injuries and retirement Although Rafa is a force to be reckoned with, his career has been riddled with injuries ever since he first turned pro. His first injury in 2003 made him miss his first Roland Garros, his only recorded French Open absence. Some of his most serious injuries came in 2012 and 2021, which forced him to miss several Masters and even Grand Slam events. Moreover, when Nadal lost for the first time in the French Open in 2009, ending a four-year streak, a knee injury played a crucial role in it. In 2012, he suffered a tear in a tendon in his left knee, which forced him off the tour for seven months and also became a reason for him to miss the US Open and the Australian Open of the following year. In 2021, Nadal started the season with severe back pain and then experienced more injuries in the following months. He missed Wimbledon and the US Open and even many Master&#8217;s 1000 tournaments. However, he still managed to win the Italian Open.

The bad news increased when Rafa was unable to return to the Tour. He missed the entire clay season and is set to miss the rest of the 2023 season. Since he has undergone injuries almost every year in his active years, Nadal&#8217;s advancing age has made it difficult for him to recover from his latest injury. In a recent press conference, the Spaniard shocked the tennis realm by announcing that the 2024 season will probably be his last on the ATP Tour.

Since then, Nadal and Federer traded Grand Slam titles until <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/novak-djokovic/">Novak Djokovic</a> stepped onto the scene. His entry would see the formation of the Big 3 of the Open Era.

Owing to the knee injury Federer faced after <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/wimbledon-championships/">Wimbledon</a> 2021 and the subsequent surgery, he had to be away from the sport for a significant amount of time. Also, the Swiss star mentioned that he went under the knife to lead a normal life with his family post-retirement. He went on to miss the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/australian-open/">Australian Open</a> 2022.

This would be the same case for the rest of the Swiss Maestro's career as he was unable to play any Grand Slams. His final match and 1750th match was in the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/laver-cup/">Laver Cup</a>. He played alongside his long-time rival Rafael Nadal against Americans Jack Sock and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/frances-tiafoe/">Frances Tiafoe</a>.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Roger Federer’s Partnerships and Endorsements</b></h2>
Rolex is one of Roger Federer's oldest sponsors. The watch company struck a deal with Federer worth approximately $15 million. He also has tie-ups with major companies such as the Japanese clothing company Uniqlo, and Swiss companies like Credit Suisse, Lindt, and Sunrise Communications.

Eventually, Federer discovered the Swiss shoe company, On. He first found out about the company when he saw his wife wearing them. Later, Federer would see people on the streets of Switzerland donning shoes made by On.

He eventually wore the shoes in training and loved them. Federer approached the board of directors of On and signed a deal with them which included a 3% stake in the company. With Federer on board, On was launched into the mainstream. The company reported immense growth in 2021.

Owing to their newfound popularity, the Swiss shoe company was able to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-wta-tennis-news-nearly-two-billion-worth-gigantic-move-from-roger-federer-as-he-deepens-his-grip-further-as-a-businessman-with-a-new-venture/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sign WTA number 1 Iga Swiatek and the up-and-coming American Ben Shelton</a>.

Federer's desire to return to the Tour with the Australian Open in 2021 had to, unfortunately, be pushed aside as he didn't have enough time for recovery. The Swiss star made a comeback at the 2021 French Open, followed by a quarter-final run at the Wimbledon Championships.

Post Wimbledon, Federer found the need to have yet another knee surgery and pulled out of the rest of the ATP tour.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Roger Federer's Retirement</b></h2>
Ever since his short-stinted 2021 run, more questions were asked of Federer about his future. The Swiss Maestro remained honest and revealed that the end was near. After the third knee surgery in the latter half of 2021, Roger wanted to see if he could compete with the best for one last time before calling it quits.
