I absolutely don't understand why the tennis world is pretending that NCYGS never happened? It absolutely happened and is not in any way, shape or form a smaller achievement than CYGS.
Novak himself isn't helping matters by going along with this narrative but remember he has nothing to win by doing that. If he does win CYGS then the thing to celebrate would be that he has done it twice but no one is going to talk about that. If he fails then it would give further fodder to downplay the importance of NCYGS.
You know if anything starting from Wimbledon or USO is harder than CYGS because you have to maintain your level for a longer time. Starting from AO you are done with the CYGS in 8 months, same with FO. But if you start with Wimbledon then it takes 11 months and from USO around 10 months. In any case this is just me nitpicking as well, the bottom line is that it doesn't matter where you start from. CYGS is a completely arbitrary thing and Novak has already done it.
