[GRASScaraz]

Alcaraz

USO 2022 vs Peak Ruud

Wimbledon 2023 vs Prime Djokovic on a historic winning streak at Centre Court Wimbledon

RG 2024 vs mentally strong and motivated Zverev

Wimbledon 2024 vs in form Djokovic

RG 2025 vs Unbeatable Sinner


Federer:
Wimbledon 2003 vs Journeyman Phillopousis

Wimbledon 2004 vs Servebot Roddick

USO 2004 vs Weaponless pusher Hewitt

Wim 2005 vs Roddick lacking any ground game

USO 2005 vs Broken back Agassi


What it tell us?

 

[Mustard]

Hewitt reached the 2004 US Open final without dropping a set and was on a 16 wins in a row streak. Federer demolished him 6-0, 7-6, 6-0, in what I think was Federer's finest match performance.

 

[Nappa]

Only Nadal among the big 3 can be compared to the Godlike Alcaraz

Stopped reading at peak Ruud

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Stopped reading at peak Ruud

Is he wrong?

 

[zagor]

Is he wrong?

I just find Ruud funny as a slam opponent. No idea how that dude reached 3 slam finals.

[duaneeo]

How about posters try not comparing everything to Federer?

 

[Third Serve]

RG 2024 vs mentally strong and motivated Zverev

oxymoron detected

 

[Kralingen]

These Finals opponents ranked 1-10:

1. Peak Ruud

2. mentally strong and motivated Zverev

3. in form Djokovic

4. Unbeatable Sinner

5. Prime Djokovic on a historic winning streak

6. Broken Back Amun-RAgassi

7. Servebot Roddick

8. Weaponless pusher Hewitt

9. Journeyman Phillopousis

10. Roddick lacking any ground game

overall, not a very flattering situation for a peak player vs fresh-poking youngster.

 

[Djokodal Fan]

Peak Ruud ... lol. 36 year old Djoovic is peak...Can you pls stop?Just stop...

 

[Towny]

Fraud would struggle to win a set against Alcaraz

 

[kishnabe]

Please rinse your eyes and rewatch 2004 SW19 final without any bias.

Roddick was more than a Servebot.

Federer would have loved to play Grandpa Novak instead of Prime Roddick.

2005 Brokenback Agassi had more spunk and guts than Zeverev.

Ruud could not even beat a clearly worn out Alcaraz.

 

[Legend of Borg]

Honestly, there doesn't go by a single day on TT that Casper doesn't catch random strays and it's hilarious.

He's probably one of the greatest sportsmen on the ATP tour next to Jannik and Carlos but it's just a meme at this point.

 

[FlyingSaucer]

mentally strong and motivated Zverev

Mischa Zverev has never made a slam final, to my knowledge.

GOATY TROUGHL POAST

MOAR PLEEZE

 

[Curtennis]

His first 5 are awesome. But peak Ruud is a bit much.

 

[Breakpointerer]

What is a peak Ruud? I have never heard of such a creature

 

[jackson vile]

It’s true

 

[socallefty]

I believe none of those five guys won a Slam after the final they lost against Federer. Djokovic won one after the 2023 loss and I’m sure that Sinner will win more Slams also.

 

[TheFifthSet]

Alcaraz: Broken 95 times, lost 27 sets, taken to 5 8 times.

Federer: Broken 38 times, lost 9 sets, taken to 5 once.

Edit: damn didn’t even read OP until now. Nice.

 

[Tennfan123]

I thought when Carlos and sinner came good that would be the end of big 3 here in gppd.
Now it seems we have a few generations worth of comparison threads ahead of us.
Lord.

 

[ADuck]

Genuinely laughed hahahah

 

[smoledman]

Carlos has yet to just romp a slam.
