The Story

Rivalry Analysis

Djokovic has won both of their Grand Slam meetings: the 2023 Australian Open fourth round 6-2, 6-1, 6-2, and a four-set fourth-round match at Wimbledon in 2025, which he won 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 after de Minaur took the opening set. He also beat de Minaur 7-5, 6-4 in the 2024 Monte Carlo quarter-finals.

De Minaur's win was a 6-4, 6-4 victory in the group stage of the 2024 United Cup. Their 2024 Wimbledon quarter-final never took place: de Minaur withdrew with a hip injury beforehand, so it is not counted. Their 2026 China Open final in Beijing gave Djokovic a seventh title there, when de Minaur retired with a groin injury early in the second set.
