Novak Djokovic is a Serbian professional tennis player who holds the men's record of 24 Grand Slam singles titles and 428 weeks ranked world No. 1. He is still active on the ATP Tour in 2026, where the ATP profile lists 102 career singles titles and Forbes ranked him sixth among the highest-paid tennis players.
What each year added up to: salary, plus outside income, royalties, endorsements, prizes and investment income where a source reports them. A financial disclosure gives ranges, shown as such.
One octagon for each phase of the life of Novak Djokovic. Each of the eight axes is scored 0 to 5 against a written rubric from documented evidence, with its source; an axis without evidence is a gap, not a zero. There is no total and no ideal shape: it is a profile, not a ranking. Appearance and personality are not axes, because they cannot be scored from evidence.
Overview2011–2024Each axis from the most recent phase that scored it. Phases: World No. 1 years (2011–2019); Pandemic, visa case and late career (2020–2024).Only 2 of the 8 axes have documented evidence, so no shape is drawn yet.
No total and no ideal shape: a longer spoke means more of that axis, so a long Misconduct spoke is more documented misconduct.
