I’m just interested in everyone’s opinion about which fictitious player has the better head to head record against his fictitious era rivals.
So assume these three scenarios, starting from the 2000s, working back to the 80s.
Scenario 1
Player A, 2000s era champion, won 13 slams. His head to head record against his 4 biggest era rivals reads as follows:
Against Player B: 7-5
Against Player C: 7-5
Against Player D: 7-5
Against Player E: 7-5
Assume that all the matches above were played in the slams only, 3 at each slam.
Scenario 2
Player F, 90s era champion, won 13 slams. His head to head record against his 4 biggest era rivals reads as follows:
Against Player G: 6-6
Against Player H: 9-3
Against Player I: 10-2
Against Player J: 10-2
Assume that all the matches above were played in the slams only, 3 at each slam.
Scenario 3
Player K, 80s era champion, won 13 slams. His head to head record against his 4 biggest era rivals reads as follows:
Against Player L: 5-7
Against Player M: 12-0
Against Player N: 12-0
Against Player O: 12-0
Assume that all the matches above were played in the slams only, 3 at each slam.
Summary
Player A: Played 48, won 28, lost 20. Had the worst win/loss record of the 3 era champions, but narrowly had the better of all his rivals.
Player F: Played 48, won 35, lost 13. Had the second best win/loss record of the 3 era champions, had easily the better of 3 of his rivals, split his biggest rivalry 6-6
Player K: Played 48, won 41, lost 7. Had the best overall win/loss record of the 3 era champions, but narrowly lost to his biggest rival. He whitewashed his other 3 rivals.
So who do you think? A, F or K? Remember, this is your opinion only, there is no right or wrong to this.
