Adjusted slam race

[topspin_forehand]

The Olympics have always been ignored in the slam race. Because the Olympics are once every four years, and there are four slams a year, winning Olympic gold should be worth winning 16 slams. Right? It’s very hard to argue with this logic. So the adjusted slam race is:

1. Nadal (38 slams)
2. Murray (35 slams)
3. Agassi (24 slams)
4. Djokovic (21 slams)
5. Federer (20 slams)

what it tells us??

You forgot about Belgrade 2. It's only happened once in 50+ years of the ATP, so it should be worth around 200 slams.

So the adjusted slam race is:
1. Djokovic (221 slams)
2. Nadal (38 slams)
3. Murray (35 slams)
4. Agassi (24 slams)
5. Federer (20 slams)

I like the fact we get the GOAT as number 1 thus confirming what we already knew. And it’s nice to see Agassi get his due and real props.
But the rest? Hmmm. Nope.

If Olympic gold is 16 slams, is Olympic silver 8 slams? At least Federer would end up #3 on the list.

I have never seen that post before.

I have the only objective measuring stick for goatness.

Murray: 80 slam titles, due to MuryGOAT. This one has been scientifically proven.
Federer 50 slam titles, because I said so
Nadal 22
Djokovic 21

Good point

Someone should adjust all these slam counts reagarding asterisked ones. Asterisked slam is not worthy more than 0.25 of normal slam.

OG are worthless in tennis even if some players overhype it.
The TV's would rather show athletics, gym or swimming. Tokyo and Rio weren't even broadcasted on my TV
The Zverev Khachanov and Murray Delpotro maches barely got any comments on social medias. Even Masters 1000 attract more viewers.
ATP stopped awarding points (and Zverev would be ranked #1 right now if it did, but he isn not...)
But even when the ATP used to give points (750), it was still less prestigious than Masters 1000.

If winning 1 Olympics means 16 slams then 1 WTF should equal 32 Slams (1500 points)
Guess Federer has 212 Slams and Djokovic has 181, and poor Nadal is stuck at 38.
Using your logic...

Very little people are able to enter the tournament in my village, you have to go through a forest infested with dangerous animals and climb 2 hills to get to it, all that with your tennis bag on your shoulder, i won it once, if we have in account its real value i would adjust the slam race like this: me: 1 slam, thiem: 1 slam, etc...
