Novak Djokovic continues to etch his name deeper into tennis history, becoming only the second player ever to win 100 career matches at Roland Garros after a dominant 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 victory over Cam Norrie in the fourth round on Monday.

Djokovic also becomes just the third man to record 100+ wins at a single Grand Slam event, following Nadal (Roland Garros) and Roger Federer (Wimbledon and Australian Open).
