How about won sets and lost/won matches ? That would help an interesting discussion. However, without any data to back it up, my guess is that Djokovic has been most consistent over the last 6-8 months, then Murray, then Federer... Federer lost a few too many in the past tourneys, but was fine until 1-2 months ago.

Yes, it is rare that posters bother with full stats to give their point context.

So, if impressive at first, it must be noted that Federer played the lowest number of matches. Of the sets he lost, a disappointingly high ratio come from players outside the top 10.

I'd say it's hard to pick between Nadal and him as the least impressive in this comparison while Novak nudges Murray into 2nd.
