Taking a look at the court speed, both Fed’s and Nadal’s resume are skewed actually. We know AO was slow hard court and USO was fast hard court prior to 2017. Since 2017 the speed has been exchanged. So Fed only won 5 out of 20 slams on slow court: AO04, AO06, AO07, AO10 and RG09. Nadal only won 4 out of 18 slams on fast court: WC08, WC10, USO10 and USO13. Djokovic instead won 7 out of 15 slams on fast court: AO19, WC11, WC14, WC15, WC18, USO11 and USO15.
Djokovic has the most balanced resume
- Thread starter wim2015
- Start date
Need actual proof though about hard court speeds. Ive never seen any actual data on USO v AO

Djokovic has won 6% of his Grand Slams on clay. Nadal doesn't have such a low percentage of Majors won on any surface. Nadal has won 11% of his Majors on grass and 22% of his Majors on hard.
Nadal has won at least 2 Grand Slams on each surface (hard, grass and clay). Djokovic only has 1 Grand Slam on clay. 2 GS on each surface >>> 1 GS on each surface.
Nadal has his Grand Slams more evenly distributed by surface than Djokovic.

Pretty simple if we are going to do this (apparently we will for a long time). There are 4 slams on 3 surfaces. This means to have true parity you need 25% on clay, 25% on grass, and 50% on hard.
Djokovic: Clay 6%, Grass 27%, Hard 66%
Rafa: Clay 66%, Grass 11%, Hard 22%
I would say Djoker is closer in having the correct amount of parity. But what does it really matter if we are looking at slams. Rafa figured out the best way to get as many slams as possible, by being the best for many years on one surface. Flaw? Or genius?

AO07 was medium-fast. AO19 was medium, not fast. USO15 and USO11 were both also medium.

Hilarious. You have a Djokonut breaking it down from fast and slow surfaces, and then a Nadal nut countering with SURFACE type.. Too funny. Everyone knows the break down is by slams, and not anything else. Fed is the most balanced.
You are right, this is getting silly, but apparently we are going to do this.

Djoker:

3 USO's

Yet "new user" claims Djoker has the most balanced resume. They're very similar in distribution, except that Fed has 5 more slams.

Big time flaw. He choose the event with zero respect from real tennis fans and people that would not side with Adolf.

This. Basically if Djoker keeps winning, he’ll probably have a similar looking resume to Fed.

Favorite Slam: 1. Nadal - 12 titles, 2. Federer - 8 titles, 3. Djokovic - 7 titles.
Second-favorite Slam: 1. Federer - 6 titles, 2. Djokovic - 4 titles, 3. Nadal - 3 titles, 1 runner-up.
Third-favorite Slam: 1. Federer - 5 titles, 2. Djokovic - 3 titles, 5 runners-up, 3. Nadal - 2 titles.
Least-favorite Slam: 1. Federer - 1 title, 4 runners-up, 3 losing semi-finals, 2. Nadal - 1 title, 4 runners-up, 1 losing semi-final, 3. Djokovic - 1 title, 3 runners-up.
Winning a title > losing a final > losing a semi-final.
Federer and Djokovic have both done better at their third-favorite Slam than Nadal has done at his second-favorite Slam.
The Australian Open and the US Open are different tournaments. Running them both together as "hard court tournaments" is bogus.

Djokovic: 60% on HC, 30% on grass, 10% on clay.
Nadal: 65% on clay, 25% on HC, 10% on grass.
Sport's arguments: 100% 2 GS on each surface makes Nadal the best.

We should add surface representation at slams:Djokovic: 60% on HC, 30% on grass, 10% on clay.
Nadal: 65% on clay, 25% on HC, 10% on grass.
Sport's arguments: 100% 2 GS on each surface makes Nadal the best.
Slams... 50% hard, 25% grass, 25% clay
Novak... 60% hard, 30% grass, 10% clay
Rafa...... 25% hard, 10% grass, 65% clay
Roger.... 55% hard, 40% grass, 5% clay
I mean, anyone that say Novak's resume isn't mosta balanced is crazy, I think it was obvious even before last two slams...
And, should we we add double golden masters, while both Fedal are missing two if I'm not wrong... Plus 5 wtf...

I don't get it, but are you saying he's rather good?
