Predictions: How Many Slams Are They Going To End Up With?
Stuff 2020 predictions. Stuff "the young guard"....what we wanna know is how many slams"they" are going to end up with.
OK, here I go:
Nole 22
Fed 20

I think you have underestimated Nole.
He doesn't have any chronic injury problems, and his movement seems as sharp as ever. He's said before he's been inspired by Fed to play till his late thirties, and that's what I suspect he'll do.
He's currently on 16 Slams, if he wins 2 slams a year for the next 3 years then he's on 22. After that he'll probably win 1 slam a year for the next 2 years, so end up on 24.
Nadal I think will probably remain on 19, his movement isn't sharp enough and declining every day. I think Thiem/Djokovic will have too much for him at the French Open.
Federer I think has a chance at Wimbledon 2020, that will be his final chance, but I think he'll win that, so he'll end up on 21.

This will certainly be a critical year. Rafa (slam count) and Nole (weeks at No1) are now so close to Fed that it is becoming difficult to see him holding them off.noleisthebest wrote:Stuff 2020 predictions.

My guess is that Nole has left himself too much work to do and that he will not reach 20. But then again, this time last year I thought the same about Rafa, and now I think he will get to 20, and likely 21+. The huge question in my mind is how special Fed's performances at 38 are. If he is absolutely unique, then Nole will (and maybe even Rafa might) fail to overtake him. If, on the other hand, this is a new "normal", and Rafa and Nole can play to similar age, then they will both scream right past 20 and could be getting to mid 20s.
Where does the young guard come in? I agree that the Big 3 race is what matters but the young guard could play an important role in where that race ultimately ends up. My hope is that Tsitsipas, Thiem and Medvedev (plus maybe some others) are ready to come in big and win almost everything from now on. As a Fed fan, that is my best hope now.
A shorter answer:
Rafa: 22
Fed: 20
Nole: 18
PS Merry Christmas (either now or Jan7th)!

I think it is going to remain as is. Not only because I hope so but I also think that only Nole can win another slam or 2 at best.
After that the new gen are going to add a few good gears and then it s going to be history for the roadrunners and Federer.
Merry Christmas all!

Re: Predictions: How Many Slams Are They Going To End Up With?
are we talking after 2020 or in the end?
if its after 2020 I think it will be:
Federer 20
Nadal 20
Novak 17
if we talk about final count for the three of them:
Federer 20
Nadal 21
Novak 20
if its after 2020 I think it will be:
Federer 20
Nadal 20
Novak 17

Re: Predictions: How Many Slams Are They Going To End Up With?
I believe Summerblues has taken leave of his senses. Nadal on 3 more Slams with Djokovic only winning 2 more?? Very bizarre claim.
Tenez's convincing argument revealing that Nadal won't win any more Slams is far more likely to be correct. Astute analysis.
