With his win over Pedro Martinez, he became the second man to complete 100 wins at Melbourne Mark, joining the legendary Roger Federer.

Djokovic, however, became the first player with 100-plus match wins at three different Grand Slams. He already has 100-plus wins at Roland Garros (101-17) and Wimbledon (102-13).
