@Tennissima72 Thank you also for your positive words for Zverev. I think the point before the match point on serve Sinner has proven and shown which kind of level this match has been over the entire match but Jannik was always on top and so we know that even without Carlos at the moment.
@Tennissima72 I think both Jannik and Carlos would have played under Top 4 and they would have been No.1 or No.2 for certain periods. I think Carlos personality is different compared to Jannik who is more consistant in a long-term way and Carlos can focus on the big events.
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 was the turning point in my opinion.
And in 2015 Federer missed to turn the tables around especially at USO final with all these breakpoints , I think 23 BPs (only 4 converted) while Djokovic had converted 6 out 13.
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 Especially this point you made is absolutely relevant.
I think if a nearly 30 years old Federer can defeat Prime Djokovic in SFs of FO 2011 this is relevant because Federer did not have his best season in 2011.
And also 2012 Wimbl. SF is relevant in my opion.
2014 Wimbl. Final
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 Yes, good point. Nadal was 19 when he won FO for the first time and he won several Masters1000 titles when he was 22 plus his FO titles till 2008. I think we have many different career profiles and Nadal took some significant GS titles from Federer during 2005-2006. I think 6 GS
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 final at AO 2009.
This iss my point. Dominant years by one player like 2004-2007 like Federer, 2008 and 2010 like Nadal or 2011, 2015, 2021 and 2023 should be explained. We need an explanation if competition was weak or competitive. Only if we can find answers about these
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 find these excuses. Look Nadal, how often he struggled with injuries? Noone is talking about this.
And even Federer had his problems but Federer was a master to find right moments to make significant breaks during the seasonal planning
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 Noone can tell me Djokovic struggled when he won Australian Open 2008 winning two Masters 1000 titles (Indian Wells and Rome) and Masters Cup and reaching semifinals of USO and FO. Just to remind us that his struggle was more in 2009 and particially 2010. I think we can always
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 I understand you argument. But if you declare Djokovic as All Time GOAT we only see numbers and not the developement of game styles and also the developement of surfaces, personalities behind the sports (Head2Head match ups with certain preferences and so on..
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 investigate more about Djokovic weak points and would play more to wore him out he were not be able to play as competitive like he still is against players like FAA.
But it is what it is and we have to accept it and we have to give Djokovic credit for his ability to investigate.
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 Possible. I don`t know. I just want to point out that Djokovic is a player who investigates more about the weaknesses of his opponents and he finds out the weak points also during his matches and forces specific close situations which favors his strategies.
If players would
@iStayWinning711@NGNOP42577 Yes, but we should not forget that Djokovic won a Grand Slam in 2008 at AO, Roddick did not win any Grand Slam titles after 2003. Roddick have been in finals of Wimbledon 2004,2005 and USO 2006.
Roddick was competitive but always inferior to Federer in general a. to Nadal on clay
@Tennissima72 I was really impressed that both players have shown so many emotion in their respective OnCourt interviews.
We can expect that both male finalist players will show the same respect for each other.
At the end congrats to both and hopefully from both not a coincidence
