Kind of like how Nadal has the answer to every question Fed can throw at him.

If Murray doesn't live up to his potential, then Djokovic might win many slams.
Thanks to the cvac machine for quick recovery, the sky is the limit for the Serb. Last edited by Fiji : 01-22-2013 at 04:15 AM. |

Even if he wins calendar slams the next 3 years, he'll only be tied with Federer.
Let's get real. That's an awful lot of full stretches turning his ankles and 5 set wins against inspired opponents. And he'll be 28 1/2 when it's all over. |

This is a ridiculous thread, I'm as big a Nole fan as any but how can he make up 12 slams ( potentially more if Fed were to win more )
2 slams a year for the next 3 plus a couple more in post prime puts him at 13 and that already assuming his level doesn't fall off . 10 looks like a more realistic goal. What Nole could so is surpass Fed at AO . |

No. He hasn't even won 1/3 of the amount, and when Fed was his age he had 10 majors compared to 5 for Novak now.

Never say never, I suppose, but I'll be very, very surprised if it happens. I sort of doubt it's even something Novak thinks is realistic. I have a feeling his goals for himself are probably smaller and more realistic like making sure he wins the French at some point, ending the year at #1 a few more times, etc.

Djokovic is gonna finish with 10 Slams. A couple more at best. People need to stop dreaming.

Federer had already won 8 majors before he turned 25. Djokovic is 26 in a few months and will likely still have 5 majors. Factor in their different playstyles and you realise that when Djokovic ages he will be in the same position Nadal is in after all that mileage takes effect.

Surpassing Nadal would be a huge achievement, but Federer is mission impossible imho.

You mean can he win another 13 majors aged 26+? Can he win another 13 majors = almost as many as Sampras managed in his ENTIRE CAREER?
I mean, really?

May as well. No point in watching the final since Lance already won it.

On the other side Federer would have a prolonged battle with Murray which would pretty much leave the winner depleted and unable to pose any serious challenge to Mr. Serbian Muhammad. It is not like any one of these two processing the cvak's machine, isn't it ? |
