What is the record on display here? Happening to have won five particular tournaments over the span of two years?

Amazing run Djokovic had a year or two ago, but I'm not sure there's any quantifiable record there.

First, you are either pretending, or not that smart. I understand you are new here. New to tennis?
Second, you can call it - "five particular tournaments over the span of 30 years", too, if it makes you feel better.

The reality is, there is only one man in open era that has completed 4 slams and the WTF in a row. Did the last sentence help you a little bit? The only more remarkable achievement would be the CY Slam + the (same year) WTF

Where is the picture of beaches , exhos , Christmas trees after the 3rd pic ??

There is something called off season.

In reality , you should hvd posted the first 3 pics on line 1, vacation pics on line 2 and the last two pics on line 3. They don't go together

9-4 in a slam. That's all that matters. :)
I corrected it for you. 6:1 at RG is so one sided, especially since we know Nadal on clay performance.
3:3 + RG is more accurate.
26:23 shows the overall balance --> Nadal peaked before Djokovic (built the lead), crashed before Djokovic (lost the lead) + the clay imbalance (for anyone against Nadal)

1 strong era slam >>> 17 weak era slams
You forgot to answer (in another thread) that same claim question.
Unfortunately (for you especially, and in this case for me as I like Nadal better than Federer), Nadal will ALWAYS remain the (second) best BEHIND Roger on the ATG...

Yet your profile picture is a Nadal one. That's all I need to know about you and about Nadal's importance! :) Have a nice day.

With the exception of 2011 Federer won at least a Slam in every season from 2003 to 2012. Are you telling us that the weak era ended in 2013? Cause that would mean that Nadal has won 3 Slams in a tough era so basically as many as Wawrinka.

Wawrinka = Nadal.

Are you new here? :rolleyes:

The weak era was mainly the transitional era between the end of Sampras/Agassi and the beginning of Nadal/Djokovic. Basically Federer dominated when Sampras and Agassi were too old and at the end of their careers and when Nadal and Djokovic were too young and not complete players yet.

This explains why Senilerer won roughly 50% of his matches vs Djokovic in 2014-2016. GTFO with your dumb attitude, fanboy, you have nothing to back it up. The same way I can say that Nadal and Djokovic started to beat Federer when he got older. Fact is, Federer has 17 Slams, Nadal is done at 14 and Djokovic will never get close to 17 so you're gonna have to live with the fact that Federer will remain at no 1 for quite some time, honey, and if someone surpasses him it won't be Nadal/Djokovic who are gonna do it.

Why didn't you post the amazing pics of Djokovic defending the first 3 titles? Oh, my bad.
In your book he should have defended his CYGS so that you wouldn't made any comments like that ? :D
I know that you guys think Djokovic is great tennis player, but you are pushing even those expectation limits made by Nole fans. :confused:

A truly remarkable achievement & one I'm sure Novak will look back on with immense pride.
As for when it might next be done, history suggests it will be quite sometime...but who knows, there are certainly factors in play that have perhaps made it more achieveable than it once was...regardless of whether it happens next year or not for another 100, it won't detract from Novak's dominant display throughout that stretch.

In this era, Raonic is #3 in the world. In this era, no one beats Stan 27 sets in a row Wawrinka is considered a "big match" player. In this era, Andy Murray is clutch. Those three facts tell you everything you need to know about Djoker's "amazing" accomplishment .

Not as impressive considering that he didn't have to go through peak Nadal to do it. Else it never would have occurred.

Sampras didn't have to go through peak Nadal & he couldn't achieve it...what I'm saying is different people will have different challenges, yes some may be perceived as being more insurmountable than others but that shouldn't detract from what Novak achieved...something as tennis fans we should ALL applaud & respect.

Mate would appear you are the newbie within the debate...what a ridiculous comment. Wonder if Roddick thinks that era was weak...

That's true generally speaking. But here we're not taking about going through some great clay courter like Guga or Courier, we're talking about the clay GOAT, 9 time FO champion. Sure he's a cheater, but he's the best the dirt has ever seen. Nadal and Djokovic are contemporaries, Nadal and Sampras are not. Federer had to go through the best version of Nadal and couldn't do it. Djokovic only go it done because Nadal (and Wawarinka for that matter) were conveniently out of his way.

Well, when he had to face elite grass courter Querry, I thought the likelihood of defending Wimbledon was nil. And I knew he wouldn't defend the US Open after his difficult road to the final.
30 Slam wins in a row is enough for some of us, and painful for some of you I see.

She meant NCYGS don't try to be smart.
Querrey is the better grass court player than Rosol , Darcis, Brown.
You of all people are laughing at Djokovic loss in R3,his first before second week in 6 years:confused:

Ahm, who won 2012 Wimbledon? Yes, arguably the greatest grass count player ever. What happened in 2013?

yes, never mind your Nobel Prizes or other laurels, you'd better know what these pictures of Djokovic represent or you're "not that smart."
That is why I gave you the "pretend" option. Otherwise, you should not be in this thread or this forum...

LOL! Six months ago, arrogant Djokovic fanatics thought that at the end of 2016 they'd be bragging about Djokovic winning five or six slams in a row, and a 6th WTF and 5th YE#1. Instead, all you can do is bring up old news and brag about something you've already bragged about umpteen times.

Prime Federer never lost in the 3rd round of Wimbledon. Actually, the only loss prime Federer suffered before a slam semifinal was at his least successful slam, and the loss was to a 3-time champion. Nole can't even make this claim about his most successful slam.
