Novak Djokovic remains in 17 majors and takes his first defeat of the year on a regular basis, the second after his shock disqualification at the US Open.
He therefore did not become the first player of the Open era (since 1968) to have at least twice each of the four Grand Slam titles on his record.
Against Nadal, the Serbian has hardly ever managed to reverse the trend except at the end of the third in which he led 5-4.
However, it keeps its first place in the world in the ATP ranking.
