As far as purely the three Slam wins (without taking into consideration the fourth lost Slam or the tournaments outside the Slams) are concerned, I'm most impressed by Fed's 2004, Nadal's 2010, and Novak's 2011 seasons. Three great Slam runs in all of those seasons, and even though the competition was kinda lacking in 2010, Nadal's level was certainly not. Obviously, I'm least impressed with Novak's 2021 season in that regard considering how much of a struggle he made some of his matches (and most of his struggles weren't against particularly impressive opposition anyway), but that's to be expected from a 34-year-old. It's a minor miracle that he brought title-winning form to three of the four Slams at age 34.
 
If it wasn't for Djokodal then Federer would have made a complete mockery of Tennis, you would have seen some 3 slam seasons in 2010s as well, defeats to these young ATGs affected his performances vs other players too in 2010s.

Infact even without Novak ..... .Federer would have made a mockery of Tennis in 2010s because Nadal was on a decline after 2013 and after changing his racquet Fed was back to his imperious best or close to it, so in a Novak free world Federer still gets many many slams extra.

The way Federer stripped and made Murray pole dance at wimbledon semis in 2015 in the one of the most 1 sided wimbledon semis in that decade between 2 ex wimbledon winners said a big story of what would have happened, even OLD Federer was dangerous against everyone else even in a declined state.
