If Thiem had had to play A-Rod in the final instead of Zverev, how do you see it going?

Stop kidding yourselves that they'll suddenly stop winning slams. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it.

Say, 17-18, do you think they would dominate the tour when Djokovic, Murray and Nadal started to decline? It seems doubtful the likes of Dimitrov, Tomic, etc would give them much trouble. Is the current "next generation" the worse in recent memory? There seems to be noone who can take the torch...

Now there will be no more responses like "Borg still has 6", well look, Nadal has 6 too now! :) Vamos!

What do you think? IMO 7 or 8 is a realistic estimation, even when his game starts to drop he'll still be a serious threat there since he's so much better than everyone else.

could he have been in the clay GOAT discussion? Or did he just not have the talent to dominate on clay like Borg and Nadal? What do you think?

Unexpected to say the least, Marat is much younger than Edberg and was playing profesionally until recently. http://www.tennis-x.com/xblog/2010-11-07/5674.php

I've never seen any live matches played on green clay and I know little about the surface apart from what I could read here and there. How would Nadal's game hav adapted to green clay? Is it safe to say it would favour him more than Hard Courts?

Did well during RG this year, yet they didn't do much at USO, or during the HC season in general actually. One would think that HCs would favour their game more than clay, no?

He played very well this USO, had a great match against Federer and saved a ton of break points against Nadal hitting clean winners, he played with a lot of heart. Hope he gets a GS next year.

Obviously Nadal has more Grand Slam tournaments, and the Career Grand Slam, while Lendl played in a lot more finals, has more titles, and many more weeks at #1. Who do you think is ahead as of right now?

I think almost everyone agrees that Borg and Nadal are #1 and #2, but who is the best clay court player ever apart from them? Would you use just the number of RGs as the measuring stick or do you count other tournaments too?

Since Nadal and Federer will not last forever, and the other good players from this generation (Djokovic, Murray, etc) are a bit too old (except Del Potro) to be called the "future of tennis", which players coming up through the ranks do you see being the future stars of tennis, apart from Del...
