The Top 10's Results at the US Open

[veroniquem]

Nadal is not even close. He needs to win 2 USO and 1 AO.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Noone has won 2 slams or more on hard court, clay and grass except for Wilander and Wilander dit it before AO switched to hard court.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Noone has won 2 slams or more on hard court, clay and grass. If Nadal wins 1 more slam on hard court, he will be the only one to have done it.

Yes you do, your just acting dumb. There's 4 GS and Rafa has not winning all 4 GS. USO hc is a TRUE test.

Before thinking about reaching home plate, you have to reach first, second and third base safely. Capiche!

Fed doesn't have an Olympic medal in singles which Agassi has.

Fed has an Olympic gold medal. Deal with it.

 

[Cyan]

no player has ever won more than 1 slam on each surface.

Wilander did.

He won 3 on clay, 2 on grass and 2 on HC.

I am not talking about career or calendar slams. I'm talking about winning 2 slams+ on clay, 2 slams+ on grass and 2 slams+ on hard.
This has NOTHING to do with the career slam and calendar slam. Even though Laver, Agassi and Fed have won all 4 in their career, none of them has won several slams on hard, clay and grass. It's a different record. Is that something your IQ can register? :-?
Did I forget a AO on grass again? Thanks Cyan, then he'll share the record with Wilander if it happens. (Although AO in the 80s is definitely not the same as W but still, you're right)

 

[Cyan]

Oh yeah.

Wimbledon >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> AO on grass

No comparison.

 

[veroniquem]

Fed has an Olympic gold medal. Deal with it.

single > double. Deal with it.
And by the way doubles records are held separately from singles records or did you think they shared the same ranking?

Why ignore USO when it's way more important the AO? My point is if you win multiple slams everywhere else but still can't win one of the 4 slam is still incomplete. Winning multiple on all 4 GS, now you are talking!!

And you are wrong again...Cyan just post a link about Wilander did it in the 80s.

How can i dispute from a teacher. Your wisdom will remember....

MS > YEC.
5 titles per year > multiple slams per year.
Rafter's serve = Goran's serve

 

[veroniquem]

Yes, I'm right. Nadal only won 1 slam in 2005, 06, 07 and 09. He's more dominant and consistent than Roger b/c it's Roger's fault for winning multiple slams

I was actually making fun of you because you didn't seem to realize that Nadal had won multiple slams as well.
So Nadal started winning slams younger than Fed AND he's winning multiple slams as well.

2 slams? Okay good, as long as it's not 'several'.

Rafter's serve = Goran's serve

# of titles stands on its own: it is not better or worse than # of slams. It's a different stat. Fed has won more titles than Nadal over a season but Nadal has won more titles than Fed for more years. 2 different stats, both valid, deal with it.
WTF is great and Fed doesn't have the record for # won: Lendl and Sampras do.
Nadal has the record of # of MS won and of consecutive years winning both MS and slams. That ruffles your feathers? too bad.
Rafter's serve was certainly very effective, Goran was an ace machine but had less variety than Rafter. They're both top 10 servers, so let it go.

Go ask Marcelo Rios if he'd rather have a slam or 7 tournaments. Anyone in their right mind would rather have a slam over any other tournament. Have 3 in one year alone elevates you to the upper echelon of tennis. Show me a player that would rather have a plethora of non slams over multiple slams. Slams are harder to win, that is why there is more prestige.

 

[veroniquem]

This is stats, nothing more. They give facts, not opinions, but yeah I'm sure Rafa prefers having 8 slams now than 5, no doubt about it.
