another little reminder
But in this era when comparing Fedal/Djoko the benchmark is by far the slams not weeks at number one. Just a reminder.

Novak already has more slams than fed did at the same age. he has only one slam less than Nadal did at the same age.I don’t care about anything across tennis eras I just care about Fedal > Thirdwheelovic.![]()

Be careful of what you wish for...
yep, soon to be Djo19vic. and then Djo20vic? time will tellYou mean Djo18vic?![]()
remember a few months ago when you kept repeating Novak was done for? Remember what happened at the AO? remember who is the number 1 player in the world today?
Nonsense. There are no easy ways to determine anything.I agree. Number one is important to prove consistency and the ranking system is needed for seeding. But it's too porous as a tool to determine who's the actual best. Fed just dropped out of the top 4 (I think?) and hasn't played in eons. Novak could ostensibly not play for who knows how long and still be ranked number one. Nadal's been in the Top 10 for years when he only played part of the time due to injury.
Rankings aren't really the most effective way to decide who's the best in the world at any given moment.
Winning Slams is still the easiest, most efficient way to decide who's the best over all.
But weeks at number 1 would be important if Federer and/or Nadal had the most weeks, right OP?
Love how you change the goalposts just because you hate Djokovic.
it wasn't that long ago that many claimed Nadal's h2h win over Fed and Novak was a key metric or that Fed's weeks at number 1 was proof of GOATness. Goalposts move all the time.The goalpost has always been the slams for Fedal and Thirdwheelovic, it’s Djokovic fans who are trying to change the goalpost.![]()
Thanks for reminding us that Novak is the Goat weeks at number 1 and masters titles....and after USO this year he will be at 21 slamsJust a little reminder.![]()

Nonsense. There are no easy ways to determine anything.
If you're taking that many slams over that long a period, you're having a #1 player anyway. Other than that, the only difference is two matches and two sets (ATP). Someone who dominates tournaments (probably including slams) week in and out'll 90% likely wear themselves out more than someone who wins all four slams.I'm not saying there are easy ways. But, to me, rankings serve to prove consistency over long periods, not necessarily who's best. And of course, it's certainly a factor for sure. An important one. But I think winning the toughest tourneys is a better barometer of greatness. So for Nole? His record 36 Masters mean more to me than his record weeks at No. 1.
Federer fans always say "X is the true measure of success/being a GOAT" then when Djokovic beats that, they change it. No doubt when Djokovic breaks the slam record, Federer fans will come out with another metric that Djokovic must beat.The goalpost has always been the slams for Fedal and Thirdwheelovic, it’s Djokovic fans who are trying to change the goalpost.![]()

And Djokovic managed to hold the 4 slams at the same time, looks like he didn't do too bad there.
Federer didn’t have the luxury of Nadal being injured at the FO and withdrawing.![]()
...and after USO this year he will be at 21 slams
At least Djoker whipped Rafa on Chatrier in 2015...Rogi never didFederer didn’t have the luxury of Nadal being injured at the FO and withdrawing.![]()
For the Christ sake, just how many more threads... Look;
This is not direct reply to you, but to all you Djokovic fans - just because you adore Novak and don't like his anti-fans, to put it mildly, it doesn't mean Djokovic will win everything out of spite. Damn no, Djokovic won't have 21 Slams after USO 21. If he couldn't do it on rampage years in 2011 and 2016, he won't do it now at 34 years of age with Rafa and Roger playing still at the top, Lost Gen, Next Gen, Mid Gen and whatever the hell Gen aside.
Second part of the post is direct reply to @USO.
Brother, I get it that you're mainly trolling Novak's die hard fans, whilst there is a certain repulsion towards Djokovic. But this should eventually stop. While it seems that you spend majority of your day on trolling on forums and hating Novak, at the same time quality of the threads and posts is getting more lower and lower. Find a better way to spend your hours, they are precious for your life and they can for sure be more productive to you, than spending this much of time writting the same stuff in different ways, no matter how old are you. Don't find this offensive or whatever, this is just an honest advice from me to you.
Cheers.
Too blatant.Excellent post. They are completely crazy, arrogant and blind with their predictions and they need to stop worshipping Djokovic as if they are married to him. Thank you for bringing them back down to Earth!

He had the luxury of someone beating Nadal early in the tournament. Federer fans should erect a statue of Soderling and worship him for all eternity, because if it wasn't for him Federer would never have won the French Open.Federer didn’t have the luxury of Nadal being injured at the FO and withdrawing.![]()

Anyway not sure why I'm giving this troll attention. This is like arguing with a 5 year old - "yeah but he did that, no he didn't do that, waaaah waaaah now give me what I want!!!".
Federer didn’t have the luxury of Nadal being injured at the FO and withdrawing.![]()
Yes, Djokovic didn't need that luxury because he beat him the previous year in straight sets.
Djoker would have whipped Rafa in 2016 again if he had toI would have beaten Nadal in 2015. Stop bragging about that win, it was the complete worst version of Nadal ever.
