So Djokovic will win 20 slams minimum

[letstakeourshirtsoff]

You are supposed to rip off your shirts when Djokovic reaches 20.
Have you not seen the pics of him doing that ? Shame.

of course I have. would even go as far as putting Djoker at #1 when it comes to peak performance shirt rippin'.
he has to work on his longevity though. far behind Matthew McConaughey who is shirtless goat.

Yeah but has Matthew McConaughey ever eaten grass?

no he prefers to smoke it (and then take his shirt off and play bongos till the police arrests him).

Novak so GOAT that Tomas Berdych wore his shoes!!

@Hitman approved

lol nice find

Novak so GOAT that Tomas Berdych wore his shoes!!

Then twenty it is for The Serbian Slamnado !

 

[Sum Buddy Ells]

Now that he is the undisputed GOAT and he pretty much has the remaining 2 slams for 2016 in the bag, that brings him to 14 slams by the end of this year.

2017-2018 he will peak, adding another 8 slams to his collection.

So we are looking at a BARE MINIMUM of 20+ slams, smashing all records in the process. Let's assume he starts to decline at age 32+, and brings in an average of 2 slams a year after that, I say it's highly likely he breaks the 30 slam mark. Thoughts?

Rookie prediction.

 

[Rudiiii]

My thoughts is that you are not good at predictions.

Here are my thoughts. Just cos Fed was able to rack up a mind boggling amount of slams doesn't mean that it's easy. Every one is a monumental effort. Add this to Novak's insanely grinding style and he was always going to struggle with his body.

Maybe these kind of threads will hit back some day?

Who knows.

No more slams for Djoker, I'm afraid.

Please bump and quote me if he does win. I can taunt, because it ain't gonna happen.

Zero chance I'm wrong.

Zero.

I like these unreasonable pie-in-the sky forecasts. I am going to jump in and have some fun. As a matter of fact, I drank the same type of potion that the OP drank, except that mine is even stronger It is super-fun, except for the triple vision that I am currently experiencing.

I will start with Chung. Chung will win 25 career slams title. He is already way better than Federer ever was.

Djokovic is at least twice as good as peak Fed ever was. Djokovic has far more variety and he can serve and volley better than a peak Sampras and a peak McEnroe put together. And Djoker will be hitting 160 mph aces with his new elbow. And since Fed won 4 slams from his age 31 season until now, that means Djokovic will win at least 12 more slams during those same ages. But it gets better! Djokovic won’t have to face a peak Djokovic! That is worth another 4 slams. That gets Djokovic to 28 slams right there. But Djokovic will also decline far better than Fed has too. As a matter of fact, I see Djokovic taking back-to-back calendar slams starting with his age 38 season. Djokovic will also be the greatest old player ever too. If Rosewall and Federer can combine for 6 slams after the age of 35, then Djokovic can crush that. Remember, most players get better with age. Also, tennis is far less physical of a sport than golf is. People forget that 59 year old Tom Watson ended up as a runner up in a major. Djokovic should be able to beat that.

If Djokovic doesn’t end up with at least 40 slam titles, then I will buy some beer and get drunk.

Djokovic’s final slam tally:

12 AO titles
12 Wimby titles
11 FO titles
10 USO titles
Total 45 titles

Can we say, la decima career grand slam? I say yes!

Wait. I have triple vision. That means that I need to take 1/3 of 45, which is 15. I predict that Djoker’s final tally will be 15 slam titles.

Hahahahahahahah this is just to funny to read, like Rollercoaster of wrong opinions

Where are the mods? Clean up needed.

This counter bump is fun.

 

[Hayole]

I think he'll be this era's Serena Williams. Capitalising on other greats going out of their primes and being the last man standing.

So yes, 20-22 slams seems to be a good estimate, if you consider he has zero competition over the next 10 years and the fact that inferior athletes like Ferrer and Haas have kept top 20 rankings way into their 30s.

You called it

He really is just like Serena in many ways

 

[Hayole]

Between 2011-2016 there had to have been 200 different threads from Djokovic fans proclaiming "25 slams are in the bag." If anyone dared dissent, a whole bunch of invective reigned down on them. Those users seem these days to have disappeared.

Looks like you might be disappearing soon

[Hayole]

It's going to be so exciting when Djokovic hits 35 years old and we really see what kind of level he can bring. Because players only get better with age. If they're aggressive shotmakers who strike first and don't rely on constant retrieving, that is.

Djokovic shouldn't have a problem, eh? Because he's so aggressive and has such a complete game? Right?

I'm crying

But he literally didn't. If not for his beliefs he would have done surgery in 2017 and barely missed a step maybe winning even Wimby 17 and USO 17.

what a prediction. I thought he would max out at 18-20, didn’t think field would be this bad and Djokovic would be this consistent.

Dear lord, how many times more? One could think at some point one would learn their lesson.

Funny thing is he might very well win 28-30 slams lol

He won't reach 28 or 30, no chance.

He could add 1 or 2 more, this year could be his last chance and the competition is strengthening this year while he weakens, we'll see a make tectonic shift in the tennis landscape in the next 18 months, by wimbledon 2025 Djokovic will look weaker, he shall no longer be rank 1.

People thought the same when he had 15-16 slams. They said the same when he had 18-19 slams. I have been saying he hasn't lost much foot speed and movement and that's why he's still dominating with ease and can play his bread butter game of defense and changing direction and moving opponents side to side. he can very well have another 3 slam a season . I'll have to see him slowing down like Nadal before I say Its over for him.

He is not slow yet but his energy levels have taken a beating, that will be on display once Sinner, Alcaraz and Rune all hit their peaks.

Stamina king will struggle to outlast guys 15-16 years younger and once that happens, it will be the end of him even if he doesn't slow down.

And when will that be?
Rune is still a kid. He will probably take 2 full years to win.
Alcaraz is even younger than him. He is already a beast but he won't be there in every slam.
And sinner himself has lost to Medvedev Tsitsipas Zverev etc in slams.

While I don't think Djokovic will win 30 slams, 26/27 is very much the target and if he is lucky he can win 28 even. Because he will be a contender for next 2 years at least giving 8 slams to win from.

You'll see the tide shift quickly by 2025.
They are all 20+, wont take time for them to mature, once they reach 21-22, they will be unstoppable.

Yes but by then Djokovic will have won 2 more slams. He would need 1 or 2 more for reaching 27/28.

This is what fedfans were telling us as well.

When Nole won RG 2016, my fedfan friends said he will win next 3 slams easily and reach 15. Also that would be his 7 slam consecutive.

After that OP exaggerated a little bit.

2016 RG is 7 and half years ago though. There were a total of 29 slams played afterwards and Djokovic won 12 of those. That's worse than what Nole did between 2011 to 2016 RG, winning 11 out of 22.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Only difference in OP prediction was Nole didn't win 8 between Wimbledon 2016 to USOpen 2018. He won 2. This was largely due to his own injury which required surgery.


Op is very correct about Nole winning 2 slam each year post age 31.
From 2019 to 2023 he won 2, 1, 3, 1, 3. A total of 10 slams in 5 years or average out 2 slams a year.
