Sorry it does count that your boy is only dominant on one surface whereas Roger dominated grass, outdoor and indoor hard courts. But if your peasant finishes with more majors then it is a different discussion.
ok fair play but did you read the post there I said Nadal will pass Federer in a year, and by the way I said par goat not past Federer.

Thiem will never win RG, he's a mental midget. Djoker should be embarrassed
It's amazing..you NEVER give anyone credit but Roger and Novak who has been the gatekeeper of Roger's legacy for the past 6 years.. however if and when Novak gets to number #17..or more You will abandoned Djokerbitch as Trump as the low income coal miners of West Virginia and Pennsylvania..

Rafa legacy will depend on defeating Novak at AO..yes it seems impossible but as we have seen from Roger, Novak and Rafa's recently recovery from injures. Anything is possible!

Aside from the fact that he elects to hit returns from the tunnel in major finals.
Stan does the same thing..he won RG and lost to Rafa. Very similar to Stan, Dominic hits through Novak's defense...This is what Roger did in the beginning but failed to do since Novak flipped the switch at the US Open twice by going for broke at MPs.. Roger's really hasn't been the same at the Grand slams with only a few exceptions.

Nice to see you back here. Djokovic did the same by stopping Roger at many slams.

Novak got defeated by the future RG champion
He gifte
Well son, I wonder why that was? Could it be because he didn't play any? Here's the draw he faced. He got very lucky and faced no big servers and faced no one good till the 1/4 final.

but in Wimbledon it’s possible for Bull to lose against a big server, on chatrier only Novak’s a game could do that.

Dominic is younger version of Stan..Andy couldn't carry Stan's jockstrap, IMO.

You're mixing up your own post. I was replying to this.

Thiem is only better on clay than Roddick.

Darth I agree with you that playing Roland Garros was a mistake for Federer. The semi was pathetic.

what a cowardly mentality and from a sore loser, Mr. Nadal hater. Federer was 5-0 vs Nadal after he changed his game, tactics and even racquet. He has great experiences at Roland so he was excited to play. The result was not disappointing, he made semis and lost to Nadal is hurricane conditions. I think he is happy with his 2 weeks here, overall. sore loser fans...

Del Potro is a big server by the way, but if hes not then yes I already known he played just him, second del Potro a great player so bs about Nadal not playing any good players at Wimbledon. Third Nick Kyrgios, stevio, D.brown djokovic Federer are not big servers in which he's lost most of matches against.

Not with a beef up serve, shorten the points plus the CC BH on the short balls..

Maybe it will turn out like that but so far I don't think it will. For one thing, Roddick had an animal of a serve and there was no way he'd dropped serve like Thiem did today, tired or not. Even on one leg he could ace most guys on tour. No point having a great ground game when you can't hold serve and he stands way too far back to return.

Thiem had no chance in this match. Djokovic should be ashamed of himself for losing the semi.
Thiem is better than Djokovic on clay, his game is better suited for clay... I favored Thiem in semis even though i wanted Joker in final badly, Djoker is my favorite, along with Nadal. Thiem has a massive heavy forehand and Djoker seems to need Thiem to miss, in order to win. Thiem just has a better game for clay...

Yes, Del Potro is a big server that's why I said he played no one good till the 1/4 final which is where he played Del Potro.

Nick Kyrgios not a big server? You must be kidding. He served either 36 or 37 aces off the top of my head that day. Dustin Brown also has a good serve. He ended the match with an ace. Rosol is a big server too. You forgot him. Djokovic and Federer are 2 of the best servers on tour. It's not all about speed and aces but placement.
