While he’s already the goat, it’s ridiculous that he could have extended his lead even further if it wasn’t for extenuating circumstances
Let’s take a look:
Wimbledon 2020: ridiculous that they chose to hold Roland garros but not Wimbledon
Us Open 2020: very unlucky dq here. He didn’t mean to do it. He didn’t hit the ball that hard, but it unfortunately caught the lineswoman in the wrong area. Just terrible all around luck. Definite favorite to win this title especially with that so called “final” we watched
Ao 2022: he made a personal choice that the government in Australia didn’t like. Removed for reasons unrelated to sport. Would have won this easily.
Us 2022: while not an absolutely guarantee, he’s a clear favorite for this one. Again, disallowed to play for reasons not related to sport
Slams: likely 28
Masters:
He totally missed out 6 NA HC masters. While he doesn’t always peak in masters, he likely wins at least 2 of these given that players like coric and Pablo carreno Busta were winning at summer 2022, which wouldn’t happen in a competitive era
My man could added 6 more big titles or something
Weeks at Number one:
Because of entirely external factors not related to the sport, he lost out on so many weeks of number of one. Many of Medvedev’s and Alcaraz’s weeks should be Djokovic’s, but there were plenty of external factors.
I know, he’s such a victim. I didn’t understand it until the millionth time you guys pointed it out.
