Novak Djokovic continues to build upon his extraordinary Masters 1000 record, having reached his 78th semi-final at the 2024 Shanghai Masters. This achievement further solidifies his lead over Rafael Nadal, who has reached 76 semi-finals, and Roger Federer with 66.
Here’s a breakdown of the top five players who have reached the most ATP Masters 1000 semi-finals:
1. **Novak Djokovic** – 78 semi-finals from 131 events, including his highest number (13) at the Italian Open.
2. **Rafael Nadal** – 76 semi-finals from 130 events, with a record 14 semi-final appearances at Monte Carlo.
3. **Roger Federer** – 66 semi-finals from 138 events, with his most at Indian Wells (12).
4. **Andy Murray** – 33 semi-finals from 119 events, achieving five semi-finals at four different tournaments.
5. **Andre Agassi** – 32 semi-finals from 91 events, with his most at the Miami Open (10).
Djokovic’s consistency at this level, combined with his record 40 Masters 1000 titles, underscores his dominance across multiple surfaces and tournaments. His ability to reach so many semi-finals highlights his durability and success over nearly two decades at the top of the sport.
Notably, Djokovic’s 2015 season was particularly remarkable, as he reached the semi-finals in all eight Masters 1000 tournaments he entered, winning six titles that year.
This consistency places Djokovic as the most successful player in the history of the ATP Masters 1000 series, edging out Nadal and Federer in key statistical categories.
