How many more Grand Slams will Nadal win before he retires?

This USO, next AO and FO are it for him. If he can't/doesn't win one of those 3 I don't see how it's possible.

Federer will get to 18, Nadal will remain at 14, Novack will get to 14.

Problem for Nadal is the Clayray has matured. Even if Nole flakes out Murray is not going to gift a RG. Other slams have been out of reach for a long time.

Most of you are underestimating one of the biggest fighters in he history of sports. He is on his way back (yes, he is injured right now but time will tell) as displayed in the last couple of months. Nadal will rather die fighting than fading away.

Its crazy how bad he was between late 14 to the end of 2016. An uninspired zombie out there. Everything was just off and the fire was out.
Yes, but I have no idea what the issue was. Was it back, wrist, leg? There were many smaller issues but no big injury. He played crazy number of tournaments in 2015.

Lack of confidence, and honestly he didn’t seem that motivated to do the work he needed to do anymore. He had to figure out how to re-tool his game after losing speed. Moya literally reminded him who he was and the new gameplan was exactly what he needed.

Versus the Nishikori/Raonic/Dimitrov and Thiem/Medvedev/Zverev eras, Rafa won 8 more slams.
And if not for what I said above it would have been zero.
