Novak Djokovic's bid for a record 25th major yet again ended at the semifinal stage. The Serb, who reached the final four of all four grand slams this season, went out 4-6, 6-7 (4), 2-6 to Carlos Alcaraz at US Open 2025 on Friday.
After a slow start, the 38-year-old looked like he was getting his teeth into the competition. But the top two players in the world, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, have been Djokovic's undoing for the last couple of years.
In 2025, while he pulled out of the Australian Open semis against Alexander Zverev, he lost to Sinner at the French Open before going down to Alcaraz at Wimbledon.
The Serb holds the Open Era record for the most number of singles majors at 24. However, he's tied with Margaret Court for the all-time record but hasn't won a grand slam title since the 2023 US Open.
Here is everything you need to know about Novak Djokovic's appearance at the US Open, including the latest results from the tournament.
