2024 Sinner vs 2011 Djokovic : who wins ?

[RS]

Not against 2011 Djok.


Not 2011 Djok

Even Nadal at RG wasn't quite having those scores most the time against top players.

 

[SpinWizard]

It's a huge insult towards Novak 2011 to compare him to Sinner 2024.

Sinner might make it more or less competitive on hard, that's for sure. But Novak 2011 destroys him on clay and grass. On hard it's maybe something like 7:6 6:4 6:3.

Sinner 2024 does not have stamina to win a match against Novak. If he somehow gets close to winning position he will ran out of steam. Novak 2011 was already stamina beast.

Why is it insult ? He is not better than 2011 Novak. But he is pretty good.
I don't think he would be that bad. You are kidding now. Nole was 5% better than his normal self not 500%. He would have lost USO vs Roger that year it would be a 2 slam year. Plus he flopped post USOpen.

Who'd win a fistfight ?
Captain Kirk or Captain Picard?

We've already seen this match at the Australian Open this year

 

[InsideOut900]

I am pretty much certain 2023 Djoko would beat Sinner at AO, RG and Wimbledon in no more than 4 sets and make it 50/50 at USO.

Sinner isn't at the level of ancient Djokovic yet.

 

[Racquet_smash]

Sinner would lose the majority of the matches against old Djokovic.

Forget about 2011.

 

[junior74]

Post peak Fraud was one point away from turning the legendary Djoko '11 into something more Sinner like.

Yeah maybe i'm exaggerating a bit, but i just can't see Sinner with his stamina issues to match Novak's physicality from 2011. Sinner is great from the baseline, maybe even better at times, but that Novak had better mental strength and stamina for sure.

 

[thrust]

11ovic wins at the USO, Wimbledon and AO. 70/30 in favor of 11ovic at RG

TRUE!

 

[thrust]

Agreed.

Considering Djoko was getting owned by Ferrer and Tipsarevic at the 5th most important event, it's hard to see him get more than a couple of games per set off Sinner.

LOL!

Good thing he recognized once in a lifetime opportunity to establish a 40-15 tradition, and ultimately, help create a beautiful trilogy. Your man snatched the defeat from the jaws of victory and saved the day!

Small margins in tennis.

 

[NeutralFan]

Sinner is slowly becoming the most complete baseliner ever, don't know why posters are angry with op for making a comparison vs 2011 Novak.

 

[Gazelle]

Sinner is good, but you're comparing him to a goat in his goat year.

 

[Backspin1183]

"Tennis has evolved"

This. Sinner would make 2011 Djokovic look amateur.

 

[ppma]

Hahahahahahaha.

What a comparison. Some people here are truly clueless.

I will say more. 2011 top 10 players like Berdych would have an easy time against top 3 today.

 

[Fabresque]

Not a question of if Sinner would win.

Rather a question of how many games Sinner would win.

 

[jl809]

Sinner doesn't win a single match anywhere lol

Yesssss! Son

 

[RS]

Best to wait to see if Sinner can improve in years to come. He isn't big 3 level at least for now.

Not really, people will keep denying it even if Sinner wins CYGS

Speaking for myself not the masses

What if he wins 20 slams?

 

[RS]

What if he wins 20 slams?

If Sinner does that he would be up with the titans of the game. Even if you believe in a very weak era 20 is a insane number.

 

[Rovesciarete]

Would actually a fascinating fight. In that 2011 season Nole was like a hurricane, tearing apart the Fedal dualism for good and establishing his type of tennis as the new meta.

The sport of tennis evolved greatly due to his banner year.

 

[No_Kwan_Do]

2011 Djokovic 7-5 7-5 6-4.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Sinner would at best win a set, come on now.
The Sinner's fanatics will not like this, but I am not even certain Sinner's HC peak is higher than Medvedev's, Alcaraz's or even Zverev's for starters (all great players btw...), so let's not even bring a mastodon like 2011 Djoker into the conversation.

Relentless baseline counter-punching and even aggressive baselining is not an evolution, but a hack to the sport allowed by the evolving sports technology.
