Will Djokovic break Nadal's record of undefeated streak start at a tournament?

Hold on....Is your opinion then, that going through 5 set matches and more rounds at the US open isn't any more difficult than winning the china open?

A best of 5 match is not more difficult than a best of 3 match, they are different. What makes one match harder than the other is the quality of the guy on the other side.

Djokovic has currently won 27 matches in a row at Beijing, Nadal has the current record of 31 matches unbeaten at a tournament before their first loss (Roland Garros). Can Novak do it?

Before people flock in and say it, yes, I realize doing it in Beijing is far less impressive than at Roland Garros.

Something golden from my Nolefam when Nole was majoring in minors

Well, at least you got it right in the final sentence, otherwise, who cares? How many insignificant records does Novak need in order to please his most avid fans?

I’m a Novak fan and I enjoy his achievements, as I’m sure you do with your favorite player. I already admitted 11 years ago in my post you are quoting that it’s not as big of a deal as Rafa at RG, but it’s cool all the same.
 
I know Seles won 33 and Agassi 26 both in AO before losing, Nadal 31 at FO but not sure if those are the all-time records. Tilden lost at the USO before his long streak as did Borg before he his 41-win streak at Wimbledon. Helen Wills also long slam winning streaks.

Nadal at Monte Carlo, lost in 2003 to Coria, won 46 matches in a row from 2005-2013, winning the title 8 years in a row from 2005-2012 and then reaching the final for a 9th consecutive year in 2013, where Djokovic beat him. Nadal won Monte Carlo another 3 times in a row from 2016-2018, 11 titles in total.

Nadal at Barcelona, lost in 2003 to Corretja, won 41 matches in a row from 2005-2009 and 2011-2013 (8 titles in a row, as he didn't play in 2010). Nadal lost in the quarter final to Almagro in 2014.

Of course, Nadal went to 31-0, 70-1, 105-2 and 112-3 at the French Open, before ending at 112-4. The 31 in a row isn't Nadal's longest match winning streak at the French Open. Nadal had a longer French Open match winning streak at either 33 in a row or 35 in a row (depending on whether you count it as 2017-2021 or 2016-2021). Using traditional methods, it's 33 in a row, because a walkover loss ends any streak. And his longest streak was 39 wins in a row, from 2010-2015.

Nadal was so epic in Monte Carlo. Those days where you could watch Nadal on clay and know that no matter what happened, he was going to win, were mythical and fun af

Up 2013-2014 time, it was big news when Nadal lost any match on clay. He was like an imperial power with the biggest clay empire in those days.

I was looking for going undefeated since start of a tournament in a slam. Helen Wills won 46 matches in a row when it was it was called the "US National." However, she had a suffered a defeat prior to the streak. Borg won 41 matches at Wimbledon consecutively but was not undefeated. I mentioned the 31 matches of Nadal since he was undefeated as Seles was undefeated at the AO with 33. Essentially, I was going from slam debut to first defeat. Magaret Court also had a long winning streak in Australia (1960-1966) but had a defeat in 1959 before her long winning streak.

Thank goodness for clay, otherwise, we would be seeing threads like: "Who is better player: Wilander or Nadal?? Wilander: 7 slams, 33 total tournaments, Nadal 8 slams, 29 total tournaments" ;)

So Nole broke Nadal's two longest streaks in clay big tournaments. Epic
