Alcaraz will win 12 slams by 25 and 20 by 30.

5 foot 8 Johan Kriek was a better player than Laver

???

???

Its just a stab, biased and theoretical of course!
JK beat Connors, Curren, Macca and Denton (last 3 amazing servers)
peak JK played like Rod but better serve that out-served Kevin Curren in his 3 out of 5 wins against him.
Connors was better than all of the above even with that ridiculous Lacoste liscenced Wilson T1 contraption.
Times and tennis moves on and peak McEnroe would never have lost to peak Rod, JK beat peak Macca.

then again Connors would have no chance against Alcaraz anywhere and would resemble DeMinaur at best.

If that somehow ever happens you know Djokovic fans will cry "weak field". Oh the irony.

Somehow it looks like you are from fedrer or nadal camp. If alcaraz is going to break djokovic record he will be new champion. 2 slam per year and still it is 10 years away.
3 slams per year 7 years to go
4 slam per year 5 years to go.
If Djokovic can cover 16 to 1 deficit than alcaraz can do the same.

Sinner will find a way to beat him and beat him everywhere. I see Sinner having a period where he collects 4 slams in a row, not necessarily calendar but NonCYGS

Alcaraz is definitely better than SInner as a tennis player, I had predicted that this rivalry will be 1 sided.

Let’s see, he needs to be consistent on HC first where there are two slams.Sinner is clearly miles better on HC and inching closer on clay

I think that is a montrous task.

Basically we are looking at a better career than Borg at 25, and catching Federer seven years earlier than when Federer made that mark.

I will say no.

With the way he struggles to eek out matches can’t see it

He is set to surpass the Big 3 based on current trends -

1) 12 total slams by age 25 (a new open-era record)
2) 20 slams by age 30

Records to be broken of Big Three -

1) First 7 slams won - Alcaraz will go at least 8-0 undefeated
2) Channel Slams - At least 3 more channel slams leading to 4 overall
3) 5 USO titles - He will win at least 6
4) 8 Wimbledon Titles - He will win at least 9 so 7 more to break the record
5) Fastest player to win 5-10 slams in record time by age 25
6) Career Grand Slam (held by Nadal at age 24) - Alcaraz will sweep this record by at least 2025-2026.
7) 5 Madrid Titles (held by Nadal) - He will win at least 7 to become the outright leader
8) 5 Indian Wells Titles (held by DjokoFed) - He will at least 7 to become the outright leader

No challenger is in sight and Alcaraz is sweeping all including the lost gen. Sinner is not on this level as shown by his 1 slam and lack of big match wins. Big Three is finished and Nadal/Djoko will retire by season ending 2025.

We all thought that winning double digit slams would be hard, but Alcaraz will win at least 15-20 at current trends (no challenger in sight).

If Sinner remains his biggest rival in the coming years, Alcaraz could break every possible record.

He's already halfway there and Sinner is his 'pigeon'.
The Murcian can break all precocity records if he sets his mind to it.

 

[smoledman]

Gimme a break, this is the same Carlos that can lose R128 to some mug.

Remind me how many slams had Federer and Djokovic won at the same age?
If Alcaraz stays injury free till his early 30s, he definitely reaches 20 slams IMO

Let's see Carlos bag a 3-slam season first.

 

[aman92]

Doesn't matter if you keep winning consistently. Rafa only had one 3 slam season in his career.

 

[xFedal]

Carlos is gna break the slam record he is winning slams at a very fast pace with mental edge of biggest rival Sinner. The field has gone super crap.

 

[Djumhur]

I just dont see 12 slams by 25. I think 10 is more realistic. To reach 12 slams he needs to be flawless at RG for the next 3 years. I think Sinner will win at least 1 RG in next 3 years

I think Alcaraz will win the next few Wimbledons, because now Alcaraz's serve looks bigger than Sinner's, and I don't see Sinner winning Wimbledon again with a smaller serve than Alcaraz.
Also, I've always said Sinner only won hardcourt slams because he didn't have to play Alcaraz, so good luck from now on...

 

[TennisGrandpA]

So far this prediction is going well

 

[RS]

AO 2026
RG 2026
Wim 2026
USO 2026
AO 2027
RG 2027
Wim 2027
USO 2027
AO 2028

Raz needs to win 6 of these 9 in get to 12 at 25. It's possible but it's going to be tough.

 

[TennisGrandpA]

It’s looking very likely

 

[DSH]

There are two completely unknown elements at play here,

1- Health
2- Strength of tour

If Alcaraz remains healthy, and the tour remains weak, he will eclipse 24 slams and make it look easy. But those are two big "if's," so we will have to wait and see.

Well, apart from Sinner (and he also dominates him), the others are no competition for Alcaraz.
The sky's the limit for the tennis player born in Murcia.

 

[Genie Of the Bank]

I'm not sure , when Djokovic withdraws from the game everybody will target Sineraz . After 5 years a new ATG will emerge, then we will start the count.
For now it fells like 2004 - 2006, two consuls of Rome rule .

 

[FeroBango]

Interesting thread.

 

[Gazelle]

Still too early. He needs a 3 slam year first before making such predictions.

 

[Jav]

I think Rafa overplayed sometimes when he was injured. And I think some of that was down to uncle Toni who encouraged that. Don't get me wrong, Toni obviously did an amazing job with Nadal overall as his career shows, but I think he encouraged him to play when injured too often which was a bad idea.

I am not sure if that would happen with Carlos or not. He seems to be smart thus far, but he is coached by Ferrero who is not someone I have a lot of faith in. I could see him being ill advised in certain situations if that is who he stays with, although I suspect he will have another coach at some point.

Haters said JCF couldn't do it. And they were correct. Honestly great call from the haters.

I'd argue it's between 04-2010. Fedal won 24 of the 28 available slams in that period. It's only in 2011 that Djokovic really emerged. I suspect we will have a similar situation here.

I told you Sinner was no rival to Alcaraz. At the end of last season, somebody was waving the Sinner flag, and I assured them, 'We will see'!

It's kind of reminded me of Djokovic/Nadal. After '11, Djokovic won the slam race 23-13, by completely shutting out of AO & WB, while he was playing. After '11, Djokovic won 9 AO's and Nadal won 9 RG's. Nadal had a head start on Djokovic, but Alcaraz started winning earlier than Sinner.
