outside of Australia :-D:-D:-D HAHAHA didnt know Australia wasn't a slam :laughing: Its actually for many becoming the best slam and also ned sucks in in 1 title lol. How about outside RG which people think sucks :-D:-D:-D

Nah son, Ned has a losing h2h vs his main rival and was unable to EVER beat him at the first slam of the year and multiple masters and also 7-0 7-0 humilation :-D:-D:-D

LMAO GOAT lol? He is 3rd wheel of his own generation, cant even beat his main rival!!
I think you are confused.. Nadal 9-5 Djokovic where it matters, best of 5 sets. Nadal 18 Majors Djokovic 15. Nadal more Masters 1000. Nadal a Career Golden Slam. Nadal multiple majors on all surfaces.

Djokovic is a great player, 2nd of all time...its just that Nadal always comes out on top...oh, and AO is the 4th Major btw even if it is my joint favourite with US Open.

Sorry chief. the above is fact.

Call when Nadal Holds all major at the same time + indoor major title. Has Nadal even defended a title away from his fav surface? Djokovic has defended Wimbledon and defended a title on all surfaces and conditions. Djokovics versatility is light years away of Nadal. Don't talk about about skew lmao

LMAO he has a losing h2h what are you on about where it matters? If nothing but slams matter then I guess Nadal has nothing now cos fed has more slams and now nadals masters means nothing as only slams matter :-D:-D:-D Nadal even worse now!!!

No son he has a losing h2h vs his main rival :-D:-D:-D:-D

He also has never beaten his main rival at a slam :-D:-D:-D:-D and multiple masters.

Facts are what matter not probables lol. Nadal now out on his own as leader of Major count at his age and counting. Leader in h2hs where it matters...and the only all surface great this era.

That automatically makes Fed GOAT as he is youngest every to reacher 19 and 20 :-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D

Literally funniest face palm you have done yet

Also Ned isnt leader of his age as he isn't the fastest to reach 19 or 20 or 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,19,20 so he isn;t GOAT hahaha :-D:-D:-D

Nadal and Djokovic have exactly same proportion of Majors on their best surface..0.66666
I am taking all tier 1 into account, not just slams. Also that % in slams (surface-wise) cannot be interpreted the same way since 50% of the slams are on outdoor hard while only 25% of the slams are on clay. Sooo 66% in 1 slam is actually a (much) higher level of specialization than 66% in 2 slams.

I could use another angle to show the difference in specialization between Nadal and Djoko. Main events are played on outdoor hard (50%), clay (28.6%), indoor hard (14.3%), grass (7.1%).

# of seasons with tier 1 events won on a single surface/environment:
Djokovic: 1: 2007 (= outdoor hard) + 1: 2009 (= indoor hard)
Nadal: 5: 2006, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016 (= clay)

# of seasons winning tier 1 on all 4 surfaces/environments:
Djokovic: 2: 2014 and 2015
Nadal: 0

You do realise you have just made Djokovic half the player of Nadal don't you. Djokovic is a hard court specialist by your logic yet cannot even have a better win ratio on his best surface than Nadal despite double the opportunity.

Perhaps you care to revise your post.

Djokovic less complete than Nadal as too skewed to hard courts and lack of multiple majors on multiple surfaces.

Djokovic's resume too skewed on hard and grass = 80% of the tour.
That means Djoker is great at 80% of the tour :love:

Closer to 70% I guess, but fair enough.

Djokovic is very good on all surfaces, like Federer, but they faced the only true clay player of this era. They would have won a lot of RG titles, both of them, with no Nadal.

Fedovic are Nadal skewed, while Nadal is skewed by Fedovic and a lot of other guys ;)

Agreed with everything but so is Federer in that regard (i.e. has shown more versatility than Nadal).

Both Djokovic and Federer have defended Master's 1000 on clay and Slams on both hard and grass and WTF. Federer defended titles at 3/4 Slams and Djokovic at 2/4 Slams (unlucky at USO).

Thiem is extremelly good on clay, he would have already won 3 RG titles and become an all-time great on clay if not for Nadal. In effect, Thiem would have won RG 2017, 2018 and 2019 if not for Nadal and would be in the Kuerten/Lendl tier on clay. If Nadal keeps stopping Thiem the next 3-4 years at RG, Thiem would have won 6 RG without Nadal, and would be disputing Borg the second place in the clay GOAT list if not for Nadal.
Yes, it is true that Djokovic has won 66% of his Slams on hard courts and Nadal 66% of his Slams on clay. Nothing wrong with that, it illustrates that Nadal is dominant on clay and so is Djokovic on hard.

Now, Federer has only won 5% 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 also has at least 2 Grand Slams on each surface (hard, grass and clay), while Federer only has 1 Grand Slam on clay. 2 GS on each surface >> 1 GS on each surface.

Nadal has his Majors more evenly distributed by surface than Federer.

But hold on... If you use your Thiem logic for Federer, Fed would have at least 5 more French Opens were it not for Nadal, thereby making him one of the greatest all time players on clay as well...

Federer was there in 2012-2015 as well, he was just not good enough to stop Djokovic at Wimbledon (2014, 2015) or Nadal at the Australian Open (2012, 2014).

A 33 years old Federer did not stop Djokovic in the Wimbledon 2014 final. A 33 years old Nadal stopped Thiem in the RG final. It basically refutes the age argument: if you are clearly better than another player, you should still defeat him at age 33.

Thiem is extremelly good on clay, he would have already won 3 RG titles and become an all-time great on clay if not for Nadal. In effect, Thiem would have won RG 2017, 2018 and 2019 if not for Nadal and would be in the Kuerten/Lendl tier on clay. If Nadal keeps stopping Thiem the next 3-4 years at RG, Thiem would have won 6 RG without Nadal, and would be disputing Borg the second place in the clay GOAT list if not for Nadal.

P. S.: I am not comparing Djokovic overall with Thiem, I am comparing Thiem on clay with Djokovic on grass. If not for Nadal, Thiem on clay could tie or even surpass Djokovic's grass achievements, but Nadal will stop him. On the other hand, Federer did not stop Djokovic at Wimbledon, and he should have, as he is the King of grass.

Well by that token, Novak stopped Rafa at French but Rafa couldn't stop Novak at AO.

And don't even go to the realms of "if not for Nadal on clay"; Federer fans will eat you up with how many French Federer would be having in that hypothetical case.
