no one can argue against it being an impressive stat
however also no one can argue against the fact that competition is as weak as it has been in a LONG time. old top players like Nadal/Fed are clearly declined. Murray still a mental midget in big matches. the youngsters are terrible, we have a whole generation from like age 18-25 who are pretty much garbage.
I can't even think of another era in tennis where the younger batches of players were so bad and MIA. its disturbing for the future of the sport
and Novak didn't achieve all 4 slams in the same season, doing that builds up a lotttt more pressure. like it or not contained seasons in ANY sport = built up pressure. its the same reason that huge winning streaks are rare for baseball and basketball teams
Nadal is the greatest player of all time on clay. Federer has 17 slams. I still don't think Djokovic has an achivement that matches them in that regard. I think he's getting closer to Nadal but 12>14 and frankly, again, I don't think you could strongly consider Novak the 'greatest' of any particular surface of all time. Federer overall hasmore HC slams than him (Aus Open + US Open) and in fact HC is his second favorite surface behind grass
congratulations to Novak but its an absurd thing to say that he's above Nadal yet, let alone Federer (that's laughable)
