That's why I said at least. I was gonna write "for a little while longer", but Serena can still surprise us you know.  But like others here, I am partial to Graf as GOAT, so I am not exactly rooting for her, but if she does, good for her. 33 yrs is not exactly young in tennis, but she has been at her most dominant during these recent years.  :)

Gotcha.  Was merely pointing out how rare grand slam opportunities are.  I also think Steffi is the GOAT.

Serena has no strong rivals so yeah in hindsight, that can give her another opportunity.

Novaks service game is just not looking good. He can barely hold his serve but he gets it done during the big points although he is leading 2-1.

can't imagine if Novak won the French Open, he is just so damn consistent. barring any injuries he should be back again next year.

23 break points for Federer and only 3 aces for Djokovich - and Djokovich still won in 4 sets.    Amazing nerves of steel.   Quite a painful one for Federer especially if he looks back on the 3rd leading 4-3 with so many break points.

Wonder what could have happened if Federer tried SABF for every break point.

Partida pa iyan. May dugo pa sa knees, elbow and hand si Djoko ;D

If you think about it ang weird ng match na ito kasi federer seems to be winning with all the break points and aces and yet djoko wins nga in 4sets. Too many (should be a record for fed) unforced errors from federer, very uncharacteristic.

Novak is just too good. He's been almost unstoppable this year.

Yeah, that was relentless defense by Djoko - very fast feet and very flexible body movements.

And just toooo many unforced errors by Federer too.

The only way for Federer to protect his being the GOAT is to figure out how to beat Djokovic every grand slam championship chance he can get in his remaining competitive years.  Djoko just keeps on playing better in slams. 

40 grand slams of the last 12 years won by Federer, Nadal and Djokovic only.  Amazing era!
