The Fedal era is over. Djoker will win some slams thru 34. Stan has 1 more GOAT-mode in him, Andy will steal some from Djoker.

I know I have you on ignore, but God..

Why did they let this guy back?

I don't get why a guy who had 2 separate alternate accounts and came here to troll (and is continuing to do so today) is allowed back? To spice things up? Well to be honest Chico would be a better member for the board. This guy is just a troll with too much time on his hands.

I can already see he has a clear goal on this forum. To discredit Federer's achievement as much as possible. I'll have him on ignore as well.

Djokovic: 8
Nadal: 15
Federer: 17
Wawrinka: 4
Murray: 3
Dimitrov: -2
Kyrgios: 1
Kokki: 6

:lol:

Kokkinakis winning more slams than Murray and Wawrinka. And Dimitrov winning -2..

Also even more hilarious that you think Djokovic will never win another slam the rest of his career. The hate is strong in you.

1. Djokovic: 11 (+3)

6. Berdych: 0

8. Raonic: 0
9. Cilic: 1
10. Nadal: 15 (+1)

I feel Murray is going to come on strong now when Djokovic falters and indeed Murray can beat him anyway. Combined I feel confident they get 7 more Slams. Which is why it's so easy predicting Raonic, Berdych and Nishikori will get zero titles. I have Nadal, Wawrinka and Federer an additional title as well. The age of the tour is due to the transitional era, which seems likely to continue for at least another full season after this. Now numbers wise that means 6 of the next Slams are all going to have to be won by the "Big 5". Which I feel is strong but Nadal and Wawrinka do have the capability to win in 2017 as well as Murray and Djokovic. This could change but I feel at least until 2018 we know what's ahead and there doesn't seem to be a slew of young contenders outside of Sock and Kyrgios and they don't scare me at least for the next 2 seasons.

The big 5 is just right, stan showed his strength. about murray I am wondering what he can do now at this wimbledon, after all, as you said things could change fast in the tour in the future...

Murray - 4
Wawrinka - 3
Nishikori - 1
Berdych - 0
Ferrer - 0
Raonic - 1
Cilic - 2
Nadal - 15

Giving Kei and Raonic slams on the basis that there will be a window for them when they're 26-28 and the Big 4 are all in their 30s and less consistent.

Ok let's do the current top 10, a lot easier now knowing they are all old so won't add that many Slams:

1) Murray - 4
2) Djokovic - 14
3) Wawrinka - 4
4) Raonic - 1
5) Nishikori - 0
6) Nadal - 15
7) Cilic - 1
8) Thiem - 0
9) Monfils - 0
10) Federer - hoping 19 but probably 18

I've basically distributed Slams until the end of 2018. From 2019 new players will take over by default.

Who would you rate as higher between Djokovic and Nadal in this case?
If Nadal has 15 and Djokovic 14 I'll rate Nadal higher. Djokovic has a chance to win 15, though while Nadal will add 1 more at the very most so it'll be very tight at the end. If they tie I'll consider Djokovic the greater player due to the rankings, titles, MS, WTF's etc. Nadal will basically have nothing on Djokovic at this point with the exception of the h2h in the Slams which I don't rate very highly anyway (too FO heavy).

Don't be fooled by Thiem's age. I feel he'll burn out fast and even now at 23,5 he's not that good, anyway.

I have serious concerns over him. I still feel like he is a Roland Garros champion waiting to happen. He will contend there over the next 5 years. Why did I give him 2, don't know. Probably should have stuck with one.

Not entirely sold on Nishi either, but I feel the draw will open up somewhere. Then again it just did, and he didn't win that 5th set. If he did maybe he'd have the trophy now.

Raonic, gotta win somewhere. But again, did he just blow a huge chance?

Nishikori is 27 years old himself and will be more injury prone in the future. He's not winning a Slam as long as the top guys are in contention and by the time they decline he'll be 29ish himself. Maybe an outside chance at the AO in 2019 or something but I wouldn't bet on it.

Thiem could maybe win 1 FO like 3 years from now just because every player younger than 27 sucks on the surface. If he doesn't burn out by then.

I was wrong on Fed. Still think Nadal is done tho. Still think Djoker will hit 14.

I'm adding some glaring omissions from the current top ten (Zverev and Dimitrov)
1) Murray - 5
2) Djokovic - 14
3) Wawrinka - 3
4) Raonic - 0
5) Nishikori - 0
6) Nadal - 16
7) Cilic - 1

10) Federer - 20
11) Dimitrov - 5
12) Zverev - 10
13) Pouille - 1
14) Kyrgios - 1

7 years worth of slams added to the current totals

You've added seven Australian Open and eight U.S. Open trophies to these guys' shelves. I can't see any of them winning slams 7 or 8 years down the line. There will be all sorts of new and younger players.

My predictions:
Nadal 12 (7 French Opens, 3 Australian, 2 Wimbledon)
Federer 15 (6 Wimbledon, 6 U.S. Open, 3 Australian)
Djokovic 3 (1 Australian, 1 U.S. Open, 1 Wimbledon)
Murray 4 (2 Australian Open, 2 U.S. Open)
Nobody else in the top ten at the moment will ever win a slam.
And those are very generous predictions^^^

career...

A little debate and comments are welcome, but lets keep this free of any stupid squabble's between Fed and Nadal ****s, or even people who intensly disagree with a person's predictions.

Be sure i'll be bumping this thread back up as each year passes.. :D

Here are mine.

1) Rafael Nadal (ESP) - 10 French Opens, 3 Wimbledon's, 2 US Open's and 2 Australian Open's - TOTAL - 17 Grandslams

2) Roger Federer (SUI)
- 7 Wimbledon's, 6 US Open's and 4 Australian Open's - TOTAL - 17 Grandslams

3) Novak Djokovic (SRB)
- 3 Australian Open's, 2 US Open's, 1 Wimbledon and 1 French Open - TOTAL - 7 Grandslams

4) Andy Murray (GBR)
- 4 US Open's, 3 Australian Open's and 2 Wimbledon's - TOTAL -9 Grandslams

5) Juan Martin del Potro (ARG)
- 1 Australian Open and 1 US Open - TOTAL - 2 Grandslams

6) Andy Roddick (USA)
- 1 US Open - TOTAL - 1 Grandslam (Sorry all American's)

7) Gilles Simon (FRA) - TOTAL 0 Grandslams

8 ) Fernando Verdasco (ESP)
- 1 Australian or US Open - TOTAL -1 GRANDSLAM

9) Nikolay Davydenko (RUS)
- Might sneak a French if Nadal gets injured, altho i don't see it. - TOTAL - 0 Grandslams

10) Gael Monfils (FRA)
- TOTAL - 0 Grandslams
Andy Murray the GOAT of losing slam finals.

For majority of his career, Andy Murray beat Federer and Djokovic here and there in small tournaments only to lose in GS. He can't handle pressure.

Confirmation bias to the extreme.

You're not thinking.

There are more small tournaments than there are Grandslams, increasing the probability for success. He has far more opportunities from Masters 1000s, 500s and 250s. Not only that but Masters 1000s are best of 3 sets right?

Dude cmon now, think. Don't be a simpleton.

Yes.

I've been saying this forever, they will dominate not only their own generation - but the next as well.

Raonic/Tomic/'s era will be the first in which none of them wins a slam.

And none of the close runners-up from the Big Three generation (Tsonga/Murray/Berdych...etc...) will ever win a slam either, so there is no-one left to win anything but Fedjokodal until 2017-18.
Brilliant predictions made back in 2009!

IMO the only major Djokovic has a chance win is one he won't have to face Federer, Nadal or Murray. I seriously doubt that will happen anytime soon, so I don't think Djokovic will win one again. Murray is a different story. Murray is more consistent than Djokovic and is a lot more fit. He's getting stronger mentally as well
djoker- 7 grand slams, are you kidding?
Djoker playing in 2017? Thats as if he hasnt had his lungs replaced by then or a labotomy.
:unsure: :unsure:

Federer 24 slams- 5 Australian Opens, 3 French Opens, 8 Wimbledons, 8 U.S Opens

Nadal 12 slams- 2 Australian Opens, 7 French Opens, 2 Wimbledons, 1 U.S Open

Djokovic 1 slam- 1 Australian Open, 0 French Opens, 0 Wimbledons, 0 U.S Opens
24 > 12 > 1
This NadalandFedererfan must feel quite disappointed 14 years later, right?

I think grass is where Gulbis will shine. It fits his game and he's a rich kid anyway, so the whole tournament fits him.


Ernests Gulbis: 0 Australian Opens, 0 French Opens, 2 Wimbledons, 0 US Opens

Comments: He's going to be the one to really end Federer's career by beating him at Wimbledon in 3 years. That's my prediction. And he'll go on to win it, with the torch informally being passed. Gulbis will win over a lot of followers with his monster forehand, and will repeat the following year, but then fail to live up to his expectations, not really threatening at the other tournaments.

He certainly won me over. I hope retirement is treating you well, my sweet Latvian prince. :)

Awesome bump!
Timing is everything. Had this been done after AO 2008 I would imagine the posters would show more respect for Djoker.

I honestly sensed he would win multiple slams then. Crazy to think he didn’t win anything until 2011…
