If you had to guess which 3 matches define the Big Four's career?

[BGod]

Not YOUR top 3 matches, but what matches you think will define the Big Four's career.

This got me to thinking about the casual fan.

I'd like to think Federer's 3 defining matches would be against Sampras in 01, Nadal in 07 and Roddick in 09. Obviously all victories for the all-time winner. But I have a feeling the general populace would pick all the Nadal matches in which case Wimbledon 07 & 08 and then between 09 AO or 11 FO. Here's the rest:

Djokovic
2012 Australian Final
2013 French Open Semi
2014 Wimbledon Final

Nadal
2008 Wimbledon Final
2009 Australian Final
2013 French Open Semi

Murray
2012 Olympic Gold Medal Game
2012 U.S. Open Final
2013 Wimbledon Final

Nadal:

FO 2005 - first major

Wim 2008 - first grass major

AO 2009 - first HC major

USO 2010 - career slam

GOLD 2008 - His biggest title in tennis

He could have retired with just those 5 titles and he would have been legendary.

The 2013 semi will define Djokovic's career until (unless) he wins Roland Garros.

1.First ever win in atp tour
2.First ever win in atp tournament final (500 or 250). Final win.
3.First ever in grand slam final. Final win.

Unless if you Kuerten,then your #2 and #3 are same.:-|

Djokovic
2012 Australian Final
2011 USO Semi Final
2014 Wimbledon Final

If he never wins the FO his loss to Wawrinka will define him more than Wimbledon
