The Sinner will be in full flight by then I anticipate. Best wishes!

I think Novak’s got one more Aussie in him. I think Carlos wins RG 2024 and AO 2025

If I had a penny for every incorrect prediction here at TTW I'd be a VERY rich man!

When he stops tanking or ducking Rome before RG; you just can't prioritise Madrid over Rome as an ideal RG preparation, it doesn't work that way.

If he succeeds, he will become the youngest tennis player in history to win all 4 Grand Slam events.
Don Budge was almost 23 years old when he did it; Alcaraz, would be, in your example, a few months younger than the American.
It depends on what happens in Australia. If he wins there in 2024, he could very well complete it in 2024, otherwise would most likely be the year after.

I wouldn't be shocked if he added an AO and RG by the end of 2025.

I also think he does it next year. Djokovic is ancient and the young guys aren't ready.

RG 2024 is his.
I would say AO in 2025. MAYBE next year, but I think Djokovic still has one left in him. And even if he wins the AO next year, maybe he doesn't win RG in that scenario. But I'd say by AO 2025, or at most RG 2025 he has won all four.
I mean, he got injured during this year's RG and he missed the AO due to injury, if not he could have been in 3/4 already.

I’m a Djoker fan, I’m down with that, I just don’t think he’ll even play long enough to win that many. I think he retires at the end of 25. His family seems to want him to retire

I’d say 2025 or 2026. I think Novak is the guy for AO again next year.
French - maybe Rafa comes back next year for one big run.
Again if he is fully healthy , we shall see.

They only said that crap after he lost to Alcawrath, before that they were all about him playing until 40 and winning 30 Slams, which I think he will still do.

Nadal holds the record in the Open Era.
However, Don Budge is the youngest tennis player in history to win all 4 Grand Slam events.
The American got it at almost 23 years old.

AO is a coin-flip next year. Anything can happen on hard court.
Hard to imagine Nadal coming back strong enough to really compete at Roland Garros. Djokovic still a beast, but if Alcaraz doesn't cramp, I think he wins that match. It would take an enormous upset to beat Alcaraz in 5 sets. I don't see Ruud, Rune, Musetti, Sinner, Medvedev, Rublev or Tsitsipas doing it. Maybe if someone decides to go supernova on serve over 5 full sets, a la Isner or FAA against Nadal there. But that's unlikely. Alcaraz is too fast and his defense is too good to just plow through him over 25-30 service games.
So if Alcaraz can stay hydrated through two weeks in June, I think he picks up his first FO and wins AO no later than '25. I think by the end of 2026 he's got 8 Slams under his belt. He really is that good.

Never.
He will be figured out by the rest of the ATP eventually. His style of tennis is too one dimensional to succeed long term.

It's very hard to not have a single slip over an entire season.
But if he is a sure ATG talent like so many claim, he will do it at some point against this field. Because any ATG capable of playing on all 4 surfaces would easily outclass the current crop of players
Can he beat him in 5 though? It's like several players that beat Djokovic outside the slams, but when it comes time to play him in best of 5, guess what? They lose
