Fed Fans: Would you change any of Federer's Major wins to wins at any of the other Majors? If so, how?

[FrontHeadlock]

As we all know Federer has won the following Majors:

• 6x AO
• 1x RG
• 8x W
• 5x USO

Would any of his fans re-allocate these in any way? For example, one might consider re-allocating 1 AO title to each of RG and USO to give him DCGS and the most Open Era titles at BOTH W and USO. Alternatively, one could re-allocate 2 AO titles and 1 W titles to RG making Fed the only player to have QCGS, while still retaining the most titles at each of W and USO, albeit tied at each.

Or do you like them the exact way they are?

 

[Beerus]

6 AO
0 RG
8 W
6 USO

At least 6 titles at 3 different Slams. Also...

 

[prosperned]

Wouldn’t this depend on who he has to beat?

Like a RG final win against Rafa is far more valuable than one of those early US Opens

 

[Deleted member 629564]

1xAO and 3xWIM for 4xRG

5+5+5+5

So you'd choose to switch one of Nadal's USO's for an AO win over Djoker?

 

[mike danny]

I'd give 2009 Wimb to Roddick and 2019 Wimb to Fed.

 

[FrontHeadlock]

I'd give 2009 Wimb to Roddick and 2019 Wimb to Fed.

Ha, not in this hypo you can't

 

[mike danny]

Ha, not in this hypo you can't

Ok, I'd probably take away AO 2018 for RG 2011. AO 2018 is like the most meh I've ever felt about a Fed slam win.

 

[prosperned]

Swap the 2017 US Open for AO12, absolutely

 

[Third Serve]

If I was concerned about surface distribution, I'd probably reallocate one AO to RG so it looks like 5 2 8 5. Fed has overperformed at the AO anyway.

 

[UnderratedSlam]

Any RF fans who claim they'd wouldn't add to the FO number by taking away from AO are probably lying to themselves...

In fact, all RF fans would each donate a testicle to science if RF beat Nadal at FO 2008 - while losing for example to Gonzales or Baghdatis...

 

[Bud]

6 AO
0 RG
8 W
6 USO

At least 6 titles at 3 different Slams. Also...

Removing that single FO would severely diminish his career accomplishments.

 

[TheNachoMan]

Not a Fed fan but I’d give AO 2009 to Fed and give WB 2009 to Roddick

 

[Rosstour]

I would trade Wimbledon 2017 for RG 2019 or Wimbledon 2019

 

[Federev]

I would trade Wimbledon 2017 for RG 2019 or Wimbledon 2019

I’d trade AO 18 for Wimby 19

 

[Rosstour]

I’d trade AO 18 for Wimby 19

Yeah I could get down with that too

 

[BeatlesFan]

Sure, I would give up any of his AO wins (except 2017) for one more French Open. Then he'd have the DCGS, something both Rafa and Novak have. It would have been nice had he won the 2011 French Open since he was in such great form in the semis. But he missed that drop shot in the first set and after that point I knew he had no chance.

 

[ElChivoEspañol]

Ok, I'd probably take away AO 2018 for RG 2011. AO 2018 is like the most meh I've ever felt about a Fed slam win.

Maybe cause he had Cilic mugging in the final?

 

[darthrafa]

• 6x AO
• 0x RG
• 10x W
• 4x USO

fo only won coz he needed not play against rafa and a 10 wimby would make sure djoker wont have more than him
i don't mind djoker have more in any records/titles than fed
but
it is difficult for me to accept djoker is better than fed at sw19 in terms of playing style and elegancy

 

[ChrisRF]

I would replace one of the rather "random" titles (like USO 2008, AO 2010, AO 2018) with RG 2006 or 2007 to complete the CYGS.

 

[mike danny]

If I was concerned about surface distribution, I'd probably reallocate one AO to RG so it looks like 5 2 8 5. Fed has overperformed at the AO anyway.

Considering how many times he reached the later stages of the AO, I'm not sure he really overperformed.

 

[mike danny]

I would replace one of the rather "random" titles (like USO 2008, AO 2010, AO 2018) with RG 2006 or 2007 to complete the CYGS.

No way am I giving up on USO 2008. That wasn't a random title.

 

[lud]

2009 USO for 2018 AO
Significence of 2009 USO is huge. 6x in a row. winning three different GS in three different GS surfaces, potential NCYGS.
2018 AO was probably one of the worst Federer form ever where he won GS. Especially Final. Cilic was in better form during whole tournament,but collapsed mentally in final. Like usual.

 

[ChrisRF]

No way am I giving up on USO 2008. That wasn't a random title.

Not even for the CYGS? I would actually replace any other single title with it. But I wouldn't exchange it for 2 or more titles though. Total number is most important.

 

[NatF]

Not fussed about surface distribution, would prefer 6th USO to 6th AO personally because he's gone so long without one but the AO is special to Federer because of Peter Carter so I doubt he'd change it.

I'd replace another title of Fed's, but not USO 2008. That was a sweet run.

 

[abmk]

AO 2018 for RG 2006 or RG 2007, duh.
CYGS and 2nd RG.

 

[abmk]

Cilic didn't collapse mentally in the AO 2018 final. He had 2 UE stretches at beginning and end, but if not for being clutch, he wouldn't have taken set2 and fought back in set4.
Fed was in better form before the final - hadn't lost a set and was dominant on serve.

 

[Krish872007]

AO 2018 for RG 2006 or RG 2007, duh.

This.
Difficult to choose between 2006 or 2007. On the one hand 2006 becomes a ridiculous season (93-4 W/L at worst with the Grand Slam) but 2007 would have felt more special for some reason.

 

[Deleted member 762343]

AO 18 for RG 11 seems like a good trade. Also AO 10 for either Wimb 08 or AO 09.
