I\u2019m not thinking about Djokovic\u2019s 24 Grand Slams or anything like that.\u201d<\/p>\n How many Grand Slams did Novak Djokovic win before turning 23 years old?<\/p>\n Although Alcaraz appears some way from Djokovic right now, he is currently tracking at a better rate than the Serbian at the same age.<\/p>\n Before Djokovic celebrated his 23rd birthday, he had won just the one Grand Slam title at the 2008 Australian Open<\/a>.<\/p>\n He had also never been world number one at this stage, something Djokovic achieved for the first time at 24 years old.<\/p>\n Novak Djokovic before turning 23Carlos Alcaraz before turning 23Highest RankingNo.2No.1Number of titles won1723Grand Slam titles won16<\/p>\n Despite claiming that he is not looking at Djokovic\u2019s record just yet, Alcaraz will be eyeing up the Australian Open next year.<\/p>\n![\"Carlos](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GettyImages-2237036062-1024x683.jpg\")
