Little Two? Little Three? Little Four?

[Fedeonic]

We all know that there's a Big Three, many argue that there was a Big Four, and some people consider that we currently have a Big Two.
But what about a Little Three? Or a Little Four? Or even a Little Two?

Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev have the highest quantity of Big Titles, highest W/L percentage, most overall titles, best regularity of the Next Gen.
Then you have Stefanos Tsitsipas with a Masters and a M1000 title, and a high W/L percentage.
You could also add Dominic Thiem, who along with Medvedev have a Grand Slam and second in overall titles.
Or Andrey Rublev, which is closer in age to Med/Zed/Stef, and has showed some regularity.

Discuss.

The widdle teeny tiny itty bitty 4

 

[Kralingen]

The Big 3 - Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic

The Bog 3 - Tsitsipas, Zverev, Medvedev

The Mug 3 - Nishikori, RaoMUG, Dimitrov

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Transitional mug chokebois until Alcaraz rises and spanks them all.

 

[onefineday]

There can only be one answer here.

 

[Aabye5]

The Big 3 - Fed, Rafa, Nole

The Little 3 - Med, Zed, Stef

The Next Level - Alcaraz, Sinner, Korda, FAA

Tried to sneak Korda in there like we wouldn’t notice

A lot of people mention Zverev, Rublev, Berrettini etc etc but to me the tier of players directly below the Big 3 is made up of players aged 22-30 who have beaten a big 3 player in a major.

The tier immediately below the Big 3 for me is The Big Six:

- Medvedev
- Tsitsipas
- Hurkacz
- Dimitrov
- Thiem
- Kyrgios

Some of the names might be a suprise to some people (I'm as big a Kyrgios critic as anyone on here) but these are the guys who deserve to be on that stratum directly below the Big 3 right now.

The most interesting thing to me is this group pf players in the 18-22 age group (Ruusuvuori, Alcaraz, Rune, KORDA, Sinner etc etc.)

These guys could be good enough to almost bridge the generation gap and start challenging for majors before their mid twenties which would completely shatter the ageing of the game paradigm that we have taken for granted in tennis for almost a decade now.

Are you seriously trying to put St. Nick into any category with these mugs?

 

[King No1e]

The Bog 3 - Tsitsipas, Zverev, Medvedev

The Mug 3 - Nishikori, RaoMUG, Dimitrov

The "Bog 3" would involve some players I cannot legally mention

 

[Sudacafan]

10 little top ten boys after Big Three retire, no matter the order or sequence.

 

[I Am Finnish]

All of them are propagandas

 

[Sudacafan]

I voted for the last option, and then I changed my mind.
So I clicked change vote button, and then voted all mugs again.

 

[Sudacafan]

All of them are propagandas

Propaganda of what?

 

[I Am Finnish]

It’s been a long time we don’t talk anymore. Nothing happened actually.

 

[8020]

Thiem is hundred times better than Zod, Tsititrash and Pushvedev. So much disrespect for a great player.

 

[beltsman]

The Bot 3 - Karlovic, Isner, Opelka

 

[Fabresque]

Wife beater and ********** are failures who’s careers will die out a pathetic death once Alcaraz grows up a bit. Meddy might hold on a bit since he’s still gonna be near unbeatable in the US HC swing for the next 3 years minimum, but will be blown out by Alcaraz and a continuously improving FAA everywhere else.

The rest of them, who cares. Thiem’s finished, Rublev and Berrettini way too one dimensional to be threats.

Edit: Apparently S1ssypants is censored. Fun

And by the way, they are big, too.

Post is correct except that I think Tsits and Zverev will be relevant far longer than Med. I already think Med is on the way down. Unless he's serving super well, then he can grab titles.

Could be. Still, in spite of his unorthodox style, Med is surprisingly stable.

 

[UnderratedSlam]

Medvedev is ahead of the bunch. Lumping him with the others is a bit silly.

4 GS finales, one title, plus a WTF (which is overrated) and 4-5 M1000s.

Zverev doesn't come close to this with his 0-1 in slam finales (vs Thiem not even the Big 3). I don't care about his 2 WTFs, they don't play a big role in this because if WTF were so huge then its last 5 winners wouldn't have just one slam title combined...

 

[UnderratedSlam]

NextGen suck, we get it.

Next thread, please.

 

[D.Nalby12]

Vacuum era players don't deserve any special mention. They don't even justify "small" tag.

 

[travlerajm]

He is waking up from his dormancy.

 

[Krish0608]

I hope Alcaraz can play Tsitsipas and Medvedev back to back

 

[Ombelibable]

The Bald 3 - Agassi, Blake, Ljubicic

The Bold 3 : Kournikova, Sharapova, Bouchard.

 

[Ombelibable]

The Bot 3 - Karlovic, Isner, Opelka

The Bet 3 :
Jimmy Connors who bet on himself winning the Wimbledon
Mike Agassi, Andre's dad who worked at Caesar's Palace casino in Vegas
@Kralingen regular better on tennis matches.

 

[Wurm]

Some players.
