If Djokovic wins Wimbledon, his numbers will be revised. But these are the actual realized ones.

Interesting, so Fedal did the RG-W channel slam during their primes. Djokovic waited till 2021, I wonder why.

He figured doing it at age of 34 was more of a challenge.

Funny story from a card game last winter someone challenged him to do it again at the age of 36

Can you guess his answer?
 
Still very very very far ahead and seems pretty impossible, but if Djokovic wins the CYGS this year, he could become the 2nd player in the history to win 5 Slams in a row (if he wins AO). I think the only guy who won more than 4 in a row is Budge (6), right?

Another challenge could be.... 6 in a row in the same Slam. Federer won 5 USO and 5 Wimbledon and Nadal 5 RG in a row. If I'm not mistaken, Sampras won 4 consecutive Wimbledon. Borg 4 consecutive RG and 5 consecutive Wimbledon. Don't think anyone has ever won 6 in a row.
Djokovic has 2 legit chances now, in AO (4, ongoing) and Wimbledon (4, ongoing... will be 5 if he wins this year). Difficult but not impossible. Shame that Wimbledon 2020 was cancelled, he would already be targetting his 6th consecutive Wimbledon atm...
(Correction... Renshaw won 6 consecutive Wimbledon between 1881 and 1886... and Sears won 7 consecutive US Open between 1881 and 1887... damn, I think Sears record will never be broken... LOL)

I had similar thread like this.

The triples show domination. Doubles is great as well. Nole and Roger are the only two who are peer to each other.
 
In the end, truth be told, no matter who you support from the Big-3, none would of existed without the other 2. I highly doubt they would of reached the GS tally they all have, if the other 2 didn't exist.
And this is the reason, I think Carlos will not reach the heights of the Big-3. If you don't have a few opponents who can truly push you, every match you play, who wakes you up from your sleep, who gives you cold sweats, then keeping the motivation will become very difficult.
 
Most impressive of these are the 4 in a row (AO RG W USO) by a mile obvs, followed by the 3 on 3 surfaces within 4 months (RG W USO) imo. Latter is so intense.

But doing the first 3 in a row (AO RG W) twice would be super impressive too if Djoker does it

Also imo Borg’s 3 channel slams (RG W) in an era of pure S&V on grass and long rallies on clay is as impressive as anything the big 3 have ever done, including the Nole Slam, the D/TCGS, etc. Proper mastery of tennis.

There is no way winning three slams in a row in anyway greater than winning four in a row. 4 will always be greater than 3.

Djokovic did his channel slam beating Nadal in 2021, Federer did his in 2009. I wonder why.

Sure, of course I can admit Fed could not have done it without Nadal out of the way in 2009. But the question is why did Djokovic wait until 2021? He won wimbledon several times before that.
 
Holmes said:
Your question: Why did he wait until 2021 to do the channel slam. He won Wimbledon many times before that.
My answer: He won it when he won it, just like Federer and Nadal. Unlike Federer, he had the ability to beat Nadal to do it.

My question: What's your point in asking the question?
Your answer: _____

That answer doesn't answer the question. Why WAIT????????? Do you know what wait means? Why couldn't he do it sooner? Answer that please. Generally a player in his peak is more apt to win it than when he is beyond his peak in 2021. So why not sooner?

My point will be revealed in your answers to the above. Real answers, not ones evading the issue. The way I answered about Federer.

But this does bring on another point. You said the most difficult task was defeating Nadal at the FO. So then that does really beg the question even more, why not do it sooner like in 2015? He was at his peak or second best peak to 2011, in 2015, Nadal was out of the way, so why not do it then? :).

And so what you will discover is that the real point is your dishonesty in answering this questions ;)

Nobody "waits" to win anything. He was not able to win it before, he did in 2021. There is nothing complicated about it. This was already said but you seem set on avoidance and of course your real intention in asking these questions is clear but I was just hoping that like your other fellows you would have the willingness to state it. Instead you rely on excuses and evasion.

How sad.

Why wasn't he able to win it before? Why wait until he is weaker in 2021? Or are you claiming he was better in 2021 than in 2011 or 2015? Doesn't make sense that he is only able to win it when he was weaker. Hmmm, I wonder how that can be explained, can you? :)

Your answer seems to be he wasn't able to win it before 2021 because he wasn't able to win it before 2021. Now do you see why I asked you if you had properly read the question?

So more pitiful excuses to avoid answering a simple question. Sad.

I never said it was lol, I said “4 is best by a mile, followed by”. Read before you get pressed
