How will this forum react to Djokovic winning 6 slams in a row plus Rio?

From the fact that at this point in the year you are certain he has already won the last two slams you can conclude its a weak era. So no. It will further emphasise his fortune.

Djokovic fans - Fed was never dominant. His first 10 slams were vs Satellite players. Fed won 7 slams and is ATG.

Federer fans - This is death of tennis, I would whine that I would never watch another match and would come back to whine next day.

Nadal fans - No matter how much he wins, he would never be as popular as Fedal. Nadal is GOAT, Vamos.

Is this supposed to be some sort of a jinx?

He has pretty much won the remaining slams this year and that will be the Grand Slam and 6 in a row. Will this board accept his Goathood?
Among the locker room he is already considered top 5 of all time behind federer, nadal, Sampras and Borg. (Open era)

What these boards think Id imagine doesn't bother him at all.

Will he ever be the GOAT? I doubt it as Federer seems to have that locked down as much as we Nadal fans feel we can justify nadal's claim. There is a definite argument for nadal in terms of his results but the fact he has not played a full season of grand slams since 2008 (im 2011 he withdrew from AO injured as he did in 2010) ends his claim when federer managed 64 in a row!

I love nadal and am so proud of his career but like me, I think djokovic fans will have to acknowledge that in the end federer is the alpha male .

While 6 Slams and Gold at Rio certainly seems possible, he is actually not even half way.

He has 3 slams and still needs 3 slams and Rio Gold for this to be possible.

Sure he is near the tail end of RG, but until he wins it, he hasn't won it.

I do expect Novak to win RG (85% sure), but I am only 55% sure that he will win all 4 the big events remaining, FO, SW19, RIO, US)

If he can pull this off it will be amazing.

It's just interesting that in some ways if feels like it's already in stone, when in actuality he has only completed 3/7ths of it.

All they have to do is to institute the most minimal intelligence test before approving new users and the problem will automatically disappear.

6 in a row? Gold medal, to boot? Well, I'd say that his hardcore fans had better hope he can keep it going at that point. Especially the ones that predicted a final haul of 20+ ;)

Who knows. But after the French it will be like this:

Djokovic fans: #Djesus #CYGS #GOAT
Djokovic haters: #excuses #asterisks
Others: #meh
Wimbledonroof: #rooflessRG #stillno1

I'm glad that you can forecast the results of his next 16 slam matches so accurately. Since he's already won them, we'll just cancel the rest of the year and hand him the FO, W and USO titles now, right?

On a serious note, if he were to win all the remaining slams this year, that would be 14 slams with the CYGS and 5 years as world No 1. He would be up there with Federer and Laver, but not the definitive GOAT.

I don't know how I will take it if Novak wins GCYGS. Far too much domination...hopefully someone is able to stop him.

That would put him on 14 slams plus the singles gold like Rafa has already achieved. Reaction would be:

It wont react because there is no such thing lol.Poor Nole fans - so much hype for winning the Olympics and Wimby and US Open and at the end nothing.Interestingly most of them have been pretty quiet since 16 months.
