Default Does anyone actually WANT anyone apart from Fedal to win a slam?

Does anyone actually new blood inside the slam winner's circle?

Personally, I don't - I wanna see Nadal and Federer fight it out for the history books with one of them hopefully winning the most grand slams in history for another 200 years or so.

If someone else won a slam, or god forbid, several over these next few years they would stand in the way of that happening.

As it stands, I don't see anyone challenging Nadal for any slam for the next few years. This year's Wimby is probably Federer's last ever shot.

I am for Nadal but seeing Murray winning his first slam at home would still be good.

What a silly question. Everyone on Earth is a Fedal fan, so no.

Yes I really want to see a non-Fedal Wimbledon champion for the first time since 2002, and a non-Fedal world no. 1 for the first time since January 2004.

I prefer variety in grand slam champions and players reaching the latter stages, rather than the same players benefitting from surface homogenisation to reach the finals and semi-finals of practically every big tournament.

Chalk me up for Murray. It should be his turn one of these times.

Unfortunately I hold out little hope for it.

I wouldn't MIND Murray winning. What I WANT is another matter entirely....

I want to see Murray win one of them.

I'd also like to see a final between two players who aren't Major champions, it would be a refreshing change to have a final where we're guaranteed to have a new champion.

i want wozniacki to win a GS

on a serious note, the more contenders the more interesting and unpredictable is the competition - that's why we love the sports, no?
