Djokovic looks like he will beat all but one or two of these. Not much added value with this one either, Mac.

ATG resumes, nothing new here.

How so? I think the only one he can beat is the semifinals streak at all Slams in a year. Doing it two more times.

He's not beating any of the rest.....

Djokovic's consistency is indeed impressive, but Federer's is just mindblowing.

Lendl deserves a mention consistency wise as well.

Why don't you and Federer get a room.

Why don't you and Federer get a room.

Maybe because it's occupied by you and Nadal.

How is that possible if he's currently playing at the U.S. Open live?

All these records, don't mean squat.

Federers style of game is finished. Like Sampras's was in the late 90's. In 10 years you will see coaches trying to find the next Djokovic. His style of play is here to stay.
