There are 4 slams, 9 MS and WTF in a year. That's 14 tournaments that are very competitive and difficult to win. And Nadal can only play 20 tournaments a year, which leaves him only a few mickey mouse tournaments. Borg's 77 titles is not better than Nadal 50 titles. Sorry, not everything carry the same weight.

There were like 10 masters equivalents during Borgīs time.he also had to fight for a WCT title which is no more at stake.
of course, with much tougher opposition than Nadal ever dream to face.
