$100 million and counting for Novak Djokovic

Synopsis

It is doubtful if he was even aware of it, but following his win over Spaniard Robert Bautista Agut in the French Open fourth round, Novak Djokovic found himself in a club of which he is the only member.
 


The Serb's rain-interrupted victory on Wednesday gained him $US328,000 and took him past the $100 million mark in prize money.  This is the most that any player has ever made purely from prize money.

Swiss Roger Federer, with a career haul of $US98,011,727, is second on the list.
 

Djokovic celebrated by fooling around with a ball boy and on-court interviewer Fabrice Santoro, the former French pro.
