Will Djokovic ever win a non-Australian slam? If so, which?

(Seems unlikely, with Rafa and Federer still the best chances at Wimbledon, and Rafa always likely to win Roland Garros, and now Murray becoming a force on clay. US Open, maybe but most of the top 10 feel most comfortable at the US Open so it won't be easy)

(Have bad news for you.

French Open 2011)

(Djokovic better win it, because if he doesn't it'll make the streak look like nothin, especially if Rafa wins Roland Garros AND Wimbledon, then it's like "what was the name of that thin guy that won all the other matches?")

( If you forget the name of that thin guy just look up the number one rank)

Its possible and with the way he's playing now I'd say his chances of winning RG are pretty high. Even if he does lose at RG, it was still a good run for him coming into it so don't take everything he's earn away. I'm just hoping if he does lose that it doesn't affect his game in the aftermath

I would say French Open 2011.....and a US Open somewhere along the future!

Wimbledon would be unlikely!

(I hope Djokovic wins more slams, because if he doesn't then it takes credibility away from streaks, and I would like to think streaks can only be done by a great player. On the subject of Murray, his career reminds me of Agassi. Agassi lost a US Open Final and 2 French Open Finals. They were his preferred slams. Then he goes to Wimbledon and wins that. Murray has lost 3 grand slam finals, on his preferred surfaces, and I can see him winning Roland Garros by surprise)

maybe, although I'm not so sure Muza will go so far (I hope he will). Now, tell me one thing - why do you keep calling Nole "Noel", lol?
my good friend, if we can have Ralph and Alfred, tell me, why can't we have Noel ??? :)

They should have had the French Open final 2 days or 3 days after the Rome final. Between Ralpsha and Noel. Decide it once and for all, so we don't have to wait a whole freaking month. Then the other positions can be decided at May end. The suspense is killing me. Will Noel win in sstraights or drop a set? Will he serve bagels to Raplhga or not ?

Indeed.

Funny, my sources say Noel drinks with Roberto Soderlini, Ricardo Giscotti and Nicolas Davydagro. They all believe that the FO is Noel's for the asking.

He has a great chance in the next couple US Opens to win at least one.

At this rate he also looks great to win the French Open this year. Probably his best chance.

Wimbledon - dunno, let's see how he does in Queen's this year

Nole wins RG
Murray wins WB
Nole wins US Open.

Nole's success doesn't translate to Murray's success. Murray is still a muppet when it comes to Slams.

Sucks you chose this username which prevents you from turning you into a complete ********* :)

nonsense. your sources are wrong. he was busted in a strip joint with Ricardo Giscotti and Jonas Wildefriedo. but he never was close to Roberto Soderlini. Mario Clinic and James Martin du Chevall on the other hand are said to be drink buddies of Noel

If by 'non-Australian slam' you mean (CYGS for djokovic this year) then we all know what you mean.

(^ Djokovic has a lot of work to do, and I think Murray has a brighter future on grass and clay. The way Murray played Djokovic at Rome, and given that Murray is only just starting to get it together on clay. The potential of Murray is massive on clay. And on grass, Murray has always been ahead of Djokovic, and maybe even at the US Open. And I haven't even mentioned the current defending champion of 3 slams; he ain't going away)

K-Noël will 'em all the big slams, including the 5th one in Cincinnati. But not this year, because D-Andy will win the Wimpledoon.

Noél has begun training like Jahangir Khan. Swallowing a couple raw eggs at 5 am then going for a 12 mile run, followed by timed sprints. Then heading for the gym. Then some laps in the pool. Once a week, he picks out his racquet, dusts it off and goes to court to hit a few balls, and try out a dropshot and tweener before hitting the bar/disco.
No one is touching him this year. Except for Andy whose Scottish genes require no training at all. His mind moves the racquet.

Yes, Rolf is overtrained. That's why he's so tired all the time. He should take up the flamenco. Onkle Troni pushes him too far. The boy needs a diversion. Maybe even a hobby, something like fly tying, perhaps.

You mean Rofl Nadal. There's no tennis player named Rolf -- ROLF means rolling on logs fishing. Yes, Rofl will need a month or 2 off, to get his juices back.

But i think Rofl is a case of burn out, too. And this is worse than being overtrained. I don't think Uncle Phoni has a cure for mental burn out.

It all depends on Joel really, if he can stay off gluten another month, its his, else the field is open.

Yes, I meant Roolph. He needs the dancing badly, don't you think? He moves around like a bull in a china shop, using his bumblebee racquette like a walking stick. He has to learn from his hero and mentor and now laptopdog Alfresco that the key to success is balletic movements - not bulletic.

I had no problem with your post until I reached the part: "Murray becoming a force on clay" :shock: :confused: :lol:
