It's been the same 4 fucking guys in every slam semi. Did that escape
your attention?
Rafa is better on clay, but take him out & Fed has 5 or 6 FO's, Djoker
the same (lost 6 times to Rafa at FO), & even Murray probably has 3,
Stan 2 or 3.
You can't argue surface diversity is the same as previous eras when it's
1 guy at any given slam stopping the other 3 from racking up huge
numbers. McEnroe & Sampras are 2 of the best players of all time, yet
Mac made just 1 FO final & Sampras 0. Becker made 7 Wimbledon finals,
but never won a clay title. Lendl/Wilander never got a look in at
Wimbledon.
