Even for Djokovic, who has won various honors, this victory is a highlight of his career.
This is Djokovic's 35th Masters title, the number tied for Nadal and tied for the first place in history, and the record of 51 masters finals is unmatched.

As the existence of ATP's ranks second only to the four Grand Slams and year-end finals, each event of the Masters series attracts the world's top masters, and the luxury of the lineup is often no different from the four Grand Slams.

Among the rest of the players, Tim, Medvedev and others who have high hopes have only become Masters champions in the past two seasons, and the number of champions is less than 3; while Kei Nishikori, Raonic and other famous players, So far still missed the Masters championship.
Since the opening of the Open, there have been 8 men's players who have won the singles "Grand Slam", but the "Golden Master" is only Djokovic. Considering various factors, perhaps this comparison is not rigorous, but at least it also reflects the value of "Golden Master" from the side.
It's not easy to complete a lap, but Djokovic can still lap after lap. What's more frightening is that in his 35 Masters titles, Monte Carlo and Cincinnati each have two, and there are at least three in the remaining seven. This means that Xiaode is only two championship trophies away from the third lap of the "Golden Master", and he may be able to achieve it next year.
The data picture shows Djokovic in the game.
So far this season, Djokovic's record is an impressive 23 wins; if you add 3 games in the Davis Cup at the end of last year, the Djokovic has won 26 consecutive victories.

With the original intention of helping some low-ranking players to survive the difficult period of no competition, Djokovic organized this event. However, during the epidemic, the game was held without complete epidemic prevention measures, and the final result was like a big pot of cold water poured on him.

Even in the history of tennis, Djokovic is already one of the most outstanding players. But the more honors in the stadium, the higher the status in history, and the external standards of measurement tend to increase accordingly. This high standard is not only in the stadium, but also more and more outside the stadium.
Fans of every project look forward to the people at the top of the pyramid becoming good role models, and tennis is no exception.
Just recently, foreign media said that Djokovic has resigned as chairman of the Players Committee of the Professional Tennis Association. He will play his role in the new organization of the Professional Tennis Players Association (PTPA). It is reported that PTPA is committed to providing players with a self-management agency independent of the ATP and directly responding to players' concerns.
