It's one thing to have a dominant run through your best years. Let's have a look at who thrived when outside of those best years. I've taken away each players best 5 year run, so Federer 2003 2007 (age 22 - 26), Djokovic 2011 - 2015 (age 24 - 28) and Nadal 2008 - 2012 (age 22 - 26). Here are the results:

If the point is that Nadal's best underwhelmed, I think you nailed it.

Nadal was the dominant player in the most competitive years in tennis history - 2008 to 2014.
