Maybe General. I have a feeling that if Federer wins #18, it will be his last, but who knows, right?
Only Nole has stopped him from getting to 20 just in the last couple of years.
Speaking of Murray, what do you think of Andy's chances at Roland Garros this year?
I know he's had great trouble beating either Djokovic or Federer in the last couple of years. Since 2014's start he is 1-11 vs. Novak, and 0-5 against the old man.
I don't think it is a lack of fitness with Murray. I think two things hurt him. A poor second serve, and lack of a big forehand. Maybe a bit of testicular fortitude as well.
But if Novak and Roger fall somehow, I think Andy could pick up the pieces.
Speaking of Roland Garros, are you going to fire up the thread for it? Only 49 days left...
Respectfully,
masterclass
we can fire up a RG thread general. you can fire one up tomorrow and I will try to add to it.
some good questions there and also great insight:
2 things do hurt andy. weak serve and a lack of a dominating forehand.
he got hold of djokovic while djokovic was still working out his game and his fitness. now there is just no contest.
that being said, andy would have his best chances against djokovic at RG if the draw is kind and somebody can knock off the top gun (djokovic).
or if he can catch djokovic on a very off day. the problem with that is that djokovic doesn't have off days anymore. even his off days result in a win for him.
I think roger can get his 18th slam at Wimbledon. there may be some chances there. he has to take them if they present themselves.
I am going to pick roger for his 18th major at Wimbledon this year.
these are my 3 favorites for Wimby:
1. Roger
2. Djokovic
3. Andy
