Hall of Fame
Ken Rosewall won the Australian Open in 1972 aged 37, Djokovic was 36 and 3 months when he won the US Open in 2023. Rosewall is the oldest Male player to have won a slam in the Open Era.
In my opinion Djokovic winning another slam gets slimmer and slimmer, Djokovic's 2024 has been a signal of a decline, injury issues and motivational issues. In actuality it was the Davis Cup last year which began this decline. Novak doesn't like losing, he nearly called it quits in the first half of 2018 and was fed up when he lost to Cecchinato at the French Open, do you think he'll settle for 2nd best all the time? I doubt that.
Federer was the closest to becoming the oldest ever slam winner at Wimbledon 2019, if I recall he was close to being 38 at the time.
