Therefore in conclusion, 45.5%.
Duh ! He is winning a major this weekend and adding the Crappy Slam to his collection.

I don't think Rafa's chances of getting 20 slams are very high because as long as Djokovic is around and playing well.. the slams are going his way unless Nadal can get on top of him somehow

This thread is not as bad as the "Serena will end up with 20 slams by the end of 2013" thread.

If he didn't lose the last 3 finals, he'd be sitting on 13 right now o_O

If they didn't slow down the court even further Nadal wouldn't be sitting on 10 slams.

Don't be an *** and take my comment out of context. Im not playing the "if" this and "if" that game. Just making a simple statement that Djokovic just in the past months stopped him from getting 13.

If David Beckham were a woman, he would use premiership sanitary towels!

It's funny how things go in circles. Now we have Nadal fans behaving much like some Fed fans wondering what it would be like had their player won X slam finals.

If Djokovic was twice as good as he is now, he'd be the GOAT of all time!

If I didn't have a butthole then where would the...

Hmmmmmmm



If Djokovic hadn't stopped Nadal from reaching 13 Slams by this stage, then Nadal would have good chances to reach 20 Slams and beyond!

Nah.

If Ivanovic were a man... I'd be gay for him.


Side note, clearly I should have used 25 slams instead of 20 given that people are actually seriously evaluating this.

The only player had a real chance to win 20 slams was Federer.

He has won 16 and missed couple of GS by small margin e.g 2005 AO, 2009 USO.

And if Fed hadn't lost finals to Ralph, he'd have already crossed 20 slams.
