Any year you win a slam is a great year. Nole had a great year last year. Sure, it could have been even better but like I've said before, people expect way too much and it stems from the ridiculous figures Nadal and Federer have put up over the last decade.... and of course Nole's stellar year.

It's unreasonable to expect a player to win 2 or 3 majors every year. Fans have been spoiled.

My prediction is Nole will win another slam this year.

I'm not normally a Pete Bodo fan, but check out his new piece on Tennis.com about "What's wrong with Nole"---losing 7 out of the last 8 slams. He concludes it's definitely "between the ears"...

I just finished reading it. I also don't normally like Bodo's ramblings. But, he looks like
on the mark on this one.

We were truly spoiled by 2011 and shouldn't expect that much out of Nole again! I have to agree about those slam losses; even the smaller events! That was a big gap of no wins last year between Monte Carlo and the fall Master events! :)
