Will Federer Have More Weeks at #1 than Nadal and Djokovic combined

[McEnroeisanartist]

Do you think Federer will have more weeks at #1 than his "rivals" Nadal and Djokovic combined?

If Nadal never reaches number one again, then Djokovic would have to be #1 for at least another 145 weeks. This seems like a tall order.

It is interesting to note that Federer's consecutive weeks at #1 was 82 weeks longer than the length of Nadal's and Djokovic's consecutive weeks at 1.

They will combined to have more slam count and total titles, but few things that they will not match:

1. weeks #1.
2. WTF
3. Wimbledon
4. Total hard court titles

Yes! Federers is the best! I think its like 287 weeks and continuing!

I still hope Nole can break some of Fed's records, if not most.

What kind of records you have in mind?

The only one that I can see is most Australian Opens. I could see Novak winning 2 more.

I've given this much thought. It depends.

Consecutive slam SFs?
Total hardcourt slams?
2 sets of all 4 majors?

Personally, I want him to have more than 17 slams. I know it's a stretch, but not entirely impossible.

Sorry, that's not going to happen. I expected an answer that is more realistic, not virtually impossible.

That's possible.

Good answer !

The most slam semis in a row might be difficult but it is not impossible. The mens game has NO depth outside the top 4 right now and for the forseeable future, no matter how much you hype Ferrer. Berdych and Tsonga are the only dangerous players, Berdych is his slave, and Tsonga has become his slave in the last several years. Another 3.5 years worth of slam semis of every slam? Definitely possible.

Anyway who are you to deem what is unrealistic. You are the one who claimed Serena had no chance to reach 20 majors which is looking increasingly laughable all the time.

Doesn't Fed hold that record with AA?

Well, you did ask what were in my mind, and I gave you the answer. I agree it does not seem very realistic, but I don't think it's 100% impossible.

Apparently, I am too much of a Nole fan.

Not that I think she won't reach the 20 major count but she still needs to win those additional 5 GS championships to get there.

Agassi and Federer both have 4 AO

Agreed. We should just wait and see. No one can predict the future, so I don't need anyone to tell me what to think and what to hope for.
