Bad seeds. 
Djokovic went 19-0 against seeded players in the NCYGS...
- Thread starter S'in-net
- Start date

That's right
Never let the facts get in the way of a good story...
Actually, I am not disputing your stats, they are probably correct. I am just showing you how they can be easily interpreted, very logically, to mean exactly the opposite of what you thought they meant when you dug them up. This in turn renders them useless. So, how do you feel now after wasting hours of your life to prove nothing?

I think holding all four titles at once is a great feat. However, it's still no comparison to what Laver did (won all four titles including the US Pro) in a single season. And like I said, Federer's 2006 and 2007 years were better. If Djokovic could trade his 2014-2016 years for Federer's 2005-2007 years, he'd do it in a heartbeat.
Djokovic is an all-time great. Nobody denies it. But he isn't Federer. And he sure as hell isn't close to Laver in any category except for maybe being taller than Laver.
Well said. I post this footage (see below) to demonstrate your point. Observe the quality of Laver's play; Djokovic would not stand a chance.

If you want to play the numbers game, then you have just cemented yourself on the losing side. Neither of the other two come close to stats/records as Federer.

It's likely his greatest achievement and something fedal were never able to achieve
19 seeds , guy was going through them like hotcakes. That type of lead over the field is rare.

This was the greatest run in grand slam history IMO as it has a record breaking 30 matches and it was done over three different surfaces.
He stands right now as the only player to win all four slams in a row in any order, on three different surfaces. He will always be seen as the first to ever do it.

nole had:Weird thread. Let's compare the greatest single calendar-year season ever against two good years from another all-time-great?
Federer's 2006-07 seasons were better than Djokovic's 2015-16 seasons.
the greatest year in history, W15-RG16: 4 slams, WTF, 5 masters + 3 finals, 2 MM and points record of 1650
the greatest 2 years in history, W14-RG16
the greatest season: 2015
and the greatest decade and career of course

I heard that in Murray's voice. LOL
But I still stand by my claim, his were all 5 set matches.

This has a case for being the greatest achievement in the history of tennis. Holding the 4 slams at the same time on 3 different surfaces, something nobody else did, although Agassi came very close, only one match away, (if we ignore the butterfly effect). Agassi's would have been even more impressive because of the bigger differences between surfaces at the time but unfortunately, he fell one match short. Federer was also one match away.
I'm sure this was done in the inflation era, as I was told he doesn't have records outside of it. Wait, what, no?

In any case inflation deflation only mattered if both he and fed had it. Fed failed so now there is no leg to stand on.
In future if some great player wins 5 or 6 in a row, he would have bigger claim than Nole.

as all noles other records there he was the only one to do it even this one is very underrated
as DCM, and TCGS and completing tennis, and highest h2h vs all main rivals and vs all players with double digit of matches and records vs top5 and op10 players and 10, 10, 10, 7 slam finals (most or second most at every slam)... ect

(Old thread which predated my time here.)
The OP did a good job compiling the data, but I'm not sure what the data proves, other than there being, on average, fewer upsets in his section of the draws during that run. Not sure that it's significant.
Of course, the achievement, itself, was quite significant, and we'll see if/when another male player matches it. It could happen in a matter of months or not again for many years.

No Wawrinka in this run. Wawrinka beat him a slam before this started (RG 15) and 2 slams after it (USO 16)
of course fed was 34+, nadal was AWOL and murray was Collapseray vs djoko multiple times in this period.
NCYGS is impressive by itself, but if you are trying to convince anyone it had tough draws, then ROTLFMAO.
