Marion Bartoli's husband reacts to "GOAT" Novak Djokovic having more titles than all other current top 10 players combined

Marion Bartoli's husband Yahya Boumediene recently reacted to a post stating that Novak Djokovic has won more titles than the nine other players in the top 10 combined.

Djokovic returned to the top of the ATP rankings after winning his 93rd career title at the Australian Open, where he beat Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final. He did, however, lose the No. 1 ranking to Carlos Alcaraz on March 20, after the Spaniard won the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.

Another major change in the ATP rankings that day saw Rafael Nadal dropping out of the top 10 for the first time since 2005. This also means that Novak Djokovic now has more titles than all the other top-10 players combined.

The Serb has so far won 93 titles on the ATP tour, while the others have won a combined total of 74 titles.

Yahya Boumediene was apparently amazed by that stat, and he took to his Instagram stories to react to it. The Belgian footballer shared an image stating the numbers and captioned it by tagging Djokovic, followed by a goat emoji.

This isn't the first time Boumediene has called Novak Djokovic the greatest tennis player of all time. The 32-year-old did the same last year when Djokovic recorded the highest win percentage in tennis history following his victory at the Astana Open.

Last month, Djokovic met Marion Bartoli and her two-year-old daughter Kamilya after landing in Dubai for the Dubai Tennis Championships. The Serb gave Kamilya a warm hug as her mother looked on.

Novak Djokovic's last appearance on the ATP Tour came during the Dubai Tennis Championships, where he lost 6-4, 6-4 in the semi-finals to Daniil Medvedev.

The Serb was unable to compete in the Indian Wells and Miami Masters as he was not allowed to travel to the United States due to being unvaccinated against COVID-19. He will next compete at the Monte-Carlo Masters, and was recently seen practicing in Belgrade ahead of the clay-court tournament.

Djokovic has won the Monte Carlo event twice so far, and will aim to win it for a third time this year. He had a short stay in Monte-Carlo last year as he lost his opening match of the tournament to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
