PARIS: Novak Djokovic won the 101st title of his career when he came from behind to beat Lorenzo Musetti 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 in the final of the ATP event in Athens on Saturday.&nbsp;The Serb is one of just three men to have racked up a century of titles - he still needs two to equal Roger Federer&#39;s 103 while Jimmy Connors heads the list with 109.&nbsp;At 38 years and five months old, the 24-time Grand Slam winner is the oldest tournament winner since Australia&#39;s Ken Rosewall, who was 43 when he won in Hong Kong in 1977.&nbsp;It was Djokovic&#39;s second title of 2025, having won on the clay of Geneva in May.&nbsp;Musetti needed to win the title to secure the eighth and final place at next week&#39;s ATP Finals. His defeat means that the Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime will feature in Turin instead.&nbsp;Djokovic had long since qualified for Turin,but kept everyone guessing until earlier this week about his participation in the prestigious end-of-season tournament.
