Djokovic decided to shake things up after failing to win a Grand Slam title in the 2017 season. He decided to hire Ivanisevic to be a part of his coaching team, and the rest, as they say, is history.
That decision immediately paid dividends, with Djokovic winning the Wimbledon title in 2018. He edged past Rafael Nadal in a five-set thriller in the semis before beating Kevin Anderson 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 in the final.
2. 2018 US Open
Djokovic made it back-to-back Grand Slam wins at the US Open, capturing the title at Flushing Meadows in 2018.
He defeated Juan Martin del Potro 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 in the final to claim his third US Open crown.
3. 2019 Australian Open
Djokovic made it three consecutive Grand Slam wins at the Australian Open, capturing the title in Melbourne in 2019.
He defeated arch-rival Rafael Nadal 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 in the final to lift his seventh Australian Open trophy.
