Can you read?

When did I say federer/djokovic would win Wimbledon?

I said "Anyone who won a Wimbledon from 2005-2010 would probably not win Wimbledon in the 80s/90s."

That means Djokovic, Nadal, Federer would probably not win Wimbledon in the 1980s/1990s.

The stats are useless. Why? The 21st Century is the weakest era of "grasscourt tennis" in history. Prime Sampras would never drop a set at Wimbledon in this era. And before you say "but the courts are slower and would not suit Sampras" just watch the 1999 Wimbledon final where Sampras rarely came to the net, and blew Agassi off the court like he was nothing. Look at how lethal Sampras' topspin backhand was, his weakest shot was dynamic on grass.

Actually, Towser *can* read, you're obviously the one who can't.

Djokovic won in 2011, Federer in 2003, 2004, and 2012.

Nadal is the only one of the three who "only" won during 2005-2010. Nice job owning yourself.

Are you on drugs? I said from 2005-2010. Federer won Wimbledon in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2009. And when did I use the word "ONLY"? You are a joke.

Ok Djokovic didn't win until 2011, but its a given he would never win Wimbledon in the 1980s and 1990s if Federer/Nadal can't. Djokovic is the weakest of the 3 on grass.

Hey, *you're* the one who wrote this. You've got a beef with the guy who said that, go talk to your mirror or something.

Funny to see him owned by his own statement

I think he is a secret Federer fan

Just admit you got owned. Federer has won 3 Wimbledons outside of the time period you posted, therefore saying that anyone that won a Wimbledon from 2005-2010 would probably not win in the 80 or 90's automatically does not prove that Federer wouldn't have been able to do it. And it doesn't prove anything about Djokovic whatsoever technically. So it "only" includes Nadal by basic logic although it could also include Federer.Therefore by your logic I could say that you proved that Nadal is the most unlikely of the 3 (considering you used the word "probably", which saved your bacon) to win a Wimbledon in the 80's or 90's.

Better question-If you meant to exclude Federer, why didn't you say from 2003 on?
Since Federer actually won playing serve and volley, he is the most likely to have won in previous eras (but don't let logic stand in your way)

can you understand?

Djokovic won wimbledon in 2011 and federer won in 2003, 2004 and 2012 - all outside of the time period you mentioned. Nadal is the only one to have won ONLY within the period you stated.

So Bastl and Krajicek could beat Sampras on fast grass, and he lost sets to guys like Agassi, Rafter, Ivanisevic, ALL THE TIME, he would not lose a set at today's wimbledon, because guys like Federer and Nadal are not as good as Rafter and Ivanisevic? Oh please.. Even today's Lleyton Hewitt could take a tiebreak from Pete if he played a great set.

This is arguably the most exciting period in tennis since RolandGarros2012. What tournament will Nadal play? When will he be back? How high can he raise the Masters 1000 title count? Let's face it, Nadal is the face of tennis nowadays.

See, I knew you would switch accounts after being embarrassed. I'd be so embarrassed I don't know if I'd come back to this thread, but maybe that's just me.

RAFA2005RG got owned so much by his own statement he's too embarrassed so he has to use the other account to post something completely irrelevant to change the topic.

I'd rather have Masha as the face of tennis.

Rafa can be the other side...
