Hang on… didn’t he start in 2005? That’s what I can recall.
Or unless you meant something among the lines of “he has been on domestic television in Australia for 20 years now”.
As in 2025 will be Courier’s 21st Australian Open in a row, so he’d have already notched up “20 years” [of the AO - year it is in - not a literal calendar year]

With no disrespect to Marat Safin intended, I reckon it could’ve been larger had it been a Federer vs Hewitt final.
The pair only ever faced off in one Major final, Federer winning in straights at the 2004 US Open.
