Novak Djokovic’s fellow tennis legends Rod Laver and Billie Jean King were quick to pay tribute to the Serbian after he notched his 24th Grand Slam crown Sunday night at the US Open.
Juan Martin del Potro, WTA star Viktoria Azarenka and Brad Gilbert, who helped coach Coco Gauff to women’s singles glory at Flushing Meadows, also praised Djokovic after he tied Margaret Court for the most major singles trophies in history.

Well done again Novak, I’m sure 24 feels as great as one, especially when you have fought so hard to get where you are and to stay there against a growing tide of challengers. You were on high alert tonight against a quality player in Daniil. Take another bow, champ!
