He was an ATG with his 3rd Wimbledon title, especially as it included a title defence. Not sure he was quite there in 2014 but it was debatable imo.
Title defence was massive but with his 4th he made a pretty good case. With 3 titles it gets debatable.
As amazing as it is with his baseline style of play, he's absolutely an ATG on grass. It boggles my mind to think that if he wins another, he'll have won as many as the great Borg.
How many Queens does he have?
Laver: 4.

All time
1. Federer 8
2. Sampras/Renshaw 7

I think 3 titles is enough already, I consider Becker an ATG on grass, likewise Mac - Edberg too.
Hwat?
Has he ever won Halle?

Eww what a gross question. Having to say yes feels like giving away a kidney.
Like that is such a bad thing.Eww what a gross question. Having to say yes feels like giving away a kidney.
Why? He wasn't losing to nobodies in the first week of Wimbledon for five years straight.Eww what a gross question. Having to say yes feels like giving away a kidney.

Pats on the back are always niceWant some pats on the back? He is 4th Open Era in no. of Wimbledon titles, pretty useless question to pose.

Bc he got 2014 and 15 Federer instead of 06/07 Federer
A grass ATG would not lose to Big 3.5-Murray.
Fed at The Olympics!

Thiem would never have held RG if he played 06 or 07 Nadal, or 18 or 19 Nadal. Irrelevant. Federer destroyed Murray in 2015 and everybody else but Novak was just better. End of discussion.

Fed has lost more than twice at Wimby last time I checked. Don't compare him to Nadal at the FO. And Murray? LOL! I never said Fed wasn't playing well, the point stands 06 Federer would have smoked Imhotep like a menthol. At the end of the day I already said I admit he's an ATG on grass.
Yeah.... he was actually young
@RF-18 Um... sorry, you are absolutely dead wrong and obviously never saw Bjorn play.Borg won his titles from the baseline too. Their styles aren't too far off but yeah amazing if Novak could tie Borg.
Borg HAD to change his game, that's what most neophytes ignore and that’s why all tennis greats look at Borg with great admiration.@RF-18 Um... sorry, you are absolutely dead wrong and obviously never saw Bjorn play.
He approached the net 146 times in the classic 1980 final against Mac and won 100 of those points. His net stats are similar in his other Wimbledon matches.

In an entire calendar year, Djokovic will probably not approach the net 146 times in all his matches played.
