Novak Djokovic has broken numerous records in his career, often breaking those belonging to Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer.
Nole did not stop even at the Shanghai Rolex Masters where, thanks to the victory against Flavio Cobolli, the Serbian champion overtook his Spanish rival, becoming the player with the highest percentage of victories in the ATP Masters 1000 with a minimum of 10 matches (82.02%, 406-89).

As mentioned, Djokovic left no escape to Cobolli, clearly beaten with the result 6-1 6-2, earning the challenge in the round of 16 against Roman Safiullin. The Serbian champion was very honest in the press conference, acknowledging that his opponent could not be in the best physical condition due to the long match played the previous day.
"I was really solid from the baseline and tried to control the game at all times. All in all, two great sets. I can't wait to play tomorrow. I will face Safiullin who is playing very well on fast surfaces. I know his qualities and I know what he can do on the court. I will have to be very careful. The advantage of not playing many tournaments is that you are fresher physically. A couple of days without matches can help the body, although it is not ideal to have too long breaks when you play a tournament because of the sensations you feel on the court," he said.
