Djokovic's Best Season (2011) V Nadal's Best Season (2010)

[ImmorTAL Big 3]

Djokovic in 2011 definitely. First he have to constantly face 2 ATG in their peak at absolutely all big tournaments,at the most cases have to face both,not reminding Murray 2011>>Murray 2010.Djokovic also was far more dominant at Masters

Fed was anything but peak in 2011.

He was a great player in 2011. Fed fans underrate their guy after 2007. lol

Nadal's peak 2010 was same as his level in 2011, but Nole was at a higher level so 2011 looks like Nadal's flop year.

2011 is the most competitive year ever, Djokovic and Federer were both close to their peaks, Federer was past his peak but still in his prime, had he shifted to a bigger racquet in 2010 then the year 2011 might have seen Federer pick 2 slams out of 4, same for Nole, had he hired Becker in 2010-2011 then the slump of 2012-2014 could have been avoided. Both Fed and Novak lost quite a bit of slams in early 2010s for various reasons, Nadal & Murray benefited.

I didn't say he wasn't great. But he wasn't peak.

Guy didn't win a title for 9 months after January and finally won a big title at the tail end of the season. Also did not win a single slam. That's the complete opposite of peak.

2011 wasn't a prime year for Federer. A year in which you don't win a major is not a prime year.

He was prime-ish, but not prime like in 2004-early 2010.

It would have been if he changed his racquet in 09-10 period

I can see him beating Tsonga and taking the Trophy in the final of Grass, Beating Novak at USO and then beating Nadal, at least 2 slams for sure would have been his.

Federer's slump from 2010-2012 is not because he was physically injured or anything, it was his game going down slightly nd he refusing to make the necessary changes by adding more power to his equipment at a time when he could have still made a different.

2014 was too late man!!

You make a sensible point with which I agree.

But whatever the reasons were, to me 2010-2012 Fed was not prime, but prime-ish, which is a level below prime. He obviously wasn't too old but not a spring chicken either considering he was fighting Djokodal in their mid 20's.
