Well even with the Wimbledon match, Djokovic still leads.
yes, by one match, even though 8 of the 11 matches were with Djokovic having physical advantage (from 11 onwards).
If it was about even, fed would have the clear advantage.
If, if, if. If he faced Federer in 2009 YEC he would be getting his ass kicked yet he did the asskicking at 2009 Basel. Lol. If Shangai were indoors yet it's an outdoor tournament. Why not talk about the actual indoor Masters tournament, Paris Masters, where Federer won once out of 13 tries? Federer wasn't in a state to play 2014 WTF final yet played the DC final 5 days later.
because fed prioritized Basel over Paris and didn't play Madrid/Paris in 04/05 - two of his peak years due to injuries. Didn't play Paris in 06 either. Guy has 10 Basel tournaments because he prioritized it over Paris and is great indoors.
Shanghai is post USO and should be indoors (unfortunately isn't). But it is as close to indoors as an outdoor tournament gets. Fed beat djoko convincingly in both 10 and 14 there.
Oh and Djokovic didn't make the semi of the YEC 09, Fed did - just in case you forgot that.
Yes, fed wasn't in a state to play 2014 WTF final.
Fed wasn't even fully recovered 5 days later in DC, let alone the day of the YEC final. Its why he lost so badly to Monfils in DC 1st match.
Point is, a win is a win. Doesn't matter if it's in RR or not, but since you brought it up, Djokovic won the more important matches against Federer at the ATP Finals.
it does matter whether it results in elimination from tournament or not. 2 matches each which resulted in elimination.
It is 3-3 (or 2-2 in elimination) at YEC with 5 of the 6 matches of physical advantage for Djokovic and 6th one (10) being neutral.
Djokovic can barely equalize with so much of advantage.
Like I said, that's your opinion.
a very informed one.
