Novak Djokovic made tennis history on Saturday as he secured his place as the year-end world No. 1 for the record seventh time.
With his 3-6 6-0 7-6 victory over Hubert Hurkacz in the semifinals of the Paris Masters, Djokovic moves clear of Pete Sampras, who finished the year as world No. 1 six times between 1993 and 1998.
The 34-year-old Djokovic, who faces Daniil Medvedev in the Paris Masters final on Sunday, has previously been crowned the year-end No. 1 in 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2018 and 2020.
