Facing French Open: Novak Djokovic secured the elusive Olympic gold medal, defeating Spain's Carlos Alcaraz in the final of the Paris Olympics to complete the career 'Golden Slam.' The Serbian legend, already a record-holder with 24 major titles, won 7-6(3), 7-6(2) in straight sets.

This victory cements his place in tennis history as one of only five players to achieve the 'Golden Slam'—winning all four Grand Slam titles and the Olympic gold—alongside Rafael Nadal, Serena Williams, Andre Agassi, and Steffi Graf.

Djokovic won a bronze medal in singles at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, finished just off the podium in fourth place in London in 2012, and experienced a devastating early exit in Rio de Janeiro in 2016.
