You know what would be really funny?

If Nole didn't win any of the 3 remaining slams this year.

LOL.

2008 docet.

Not so funny really. He really only has a legitimate shot at the USO.

Still, he can come out on top if Rafa wins the FO, Roger the W and Nole the USO.

This is probably 50/50 and equal odds to Roger winning both W and the USO
finishing #1 for the 6th time and winning his 7th Wimbledon.

I think that's exactly what will happen this year.

Highly unlikely that Roger will win a slam this year.

I doubt Feds will never win another USO, UNLESS he gets one of those
rainout Sundays and gets an extra days rest to play on a Monday
night... that's his only chance... he cannot do back to back major
championship matches over 5 sets any longer OR AT LEAST he's not been
able to for a while now... ONE WAY IT MIGHT happen is the opponent
having a tough 5 setter and he not having one... that's secenario #2
that could allow Fed a CHANCE to get a USO... otherwise, it's going to
be unlikely...

Yeah, he's the only late bloomer that got old at 28...

Federer was a late bloomer but as you can see he made up for it.

28 is getting old in tennis. Does not matter that he was a late
bloomer. Nadal may start to decline at a younger age than Federer
because Nadal has been a major force since he was a young teen. The
body and mind can only withstand so much.

He is the only late bloomer that got old at 28 and still won 16
slams...

Tells just that 16 slams is not fit for the record.
