Novak Djokovic equalled Roger Federer’s all-time record among men for most weeks as ATP world No.1 on Monday, holding the top spot for the 310th week.
Djokovic’s ninth Australian Open title last month guaranteed that he would surpass Federer’s record on March 8.

Having reached another milestone, Djokovic had said he would look to adjust his calendar and make overhauling Federer and Rafa Nadal’s joint-record of 20 Grand Slam titles his top priority.
“Now, after achieving the historic No.1 for the longest weeks, it’s going to be a relief for me because I’m going to focus all my attention on Slams mostly,” the Serb had said after his title triumph at Melbourne Park.
