Novak Djokovic admitted Wimbledon may be his "best chance" to make history as he chases a record 25th grand slam title.

Djokovic has been level with Margaret Court on 24 major titles since claiming the 2023 US Open trophy and came closest to breaking that record at the All England Club last year, losing in the final to Carlos Alcaraz.

He has reached the semi-finals of both grand slams so far this year; he withdrew from the Australian Open through injury against Alexander Zverev, while he was beaten in straight sets by Jannik Sinner at the French Open.

He could face the Italian at the same stage again at SW19, while he has also fallen on Jack Draper's quarter of the draw, with the British number one a potential quarter-final opponent.

"I would probably agree that Wimbledon could be the best chance because of the results I had, because of how I feel, how I play in Wimbledon, just getting that extra push mentally and motivation to perform the best tennis at the highest level," Djokovic told reporters.

Djokovic has won Wimbledon seven times. Only Roger Federer (eight) has won the event on more occasions in the Open Era.

Federer (105) is also the only man to win more Wimbledon singles matches in the Open Era than Djokovic, who has won 97.

Only two men during the Open Era have reached the final on 10 or more occasions at Wimbledon, and they are Djokovic (10) and Federer (12).

The Serb had hinted after the French Open that he could have made his last appearance at the clay-court major, and he was also coy about a potential Wimbledon farewell.

"Whether it could be my last dance, I'm not sure, as I'm not sure about Roland-Garros or any other slam that I play next," he said.

"My wish is to play for several more years. I would love to be healthy physically and also mentally motivated to keep on playing at the highest level. That's the goal, but you never know at this stage.

"In a sense, you're always hunting because you're always going for the titles - in my also privileged position - the records and more history.

"I would say it's slightly different for me now in terms of I don't chase the rankings anymore in that regard. I'm trying to play the best tennis in grand slams and trying to win grand slams."

Djokovic will face Alexandre Muller in the first round at Wimbledon.
