Congrats to Novak and his fans, but this is one of the worst runs to win 4+ GS in a row at the same Slam.

Nadal was dominating in 2018 until they closed the roof to make it an indoor court.
Federer took care of Nadal in 2019 and then choked from 40-15 in the finals
No Federer or Nadal in 2021 and 2022, and played terribly but beat the worst generation of players on grass.

Weakest grass era?

don’t forget no family 2022 allowing a cake walk in the final.
 
Novak is a machine. His performance reminded me of City. Just calm efficiency and an air of inevitability.
 
btw, Fed "officially" down to third place in that GOAT race.

Greatest of all time, his dumbassery in relation to vaccine has cost him a Major and probably another one coming up. But, even at his age no one is on his level

GOOD will teach him a lesson about his principles
 
Novak vaccine stance is weirdest sh1t ever. I'll never understand it. Extremely dumb and extremely damaging on so many levels.

However that sort of sh1t works for him. You have to be mentally unbendable to beat Federer 3 times at slams while facing match points and also to beat Nadal at RG twice. The guy was never meant to be this great and few flaws were required to get to where he is.
 
Comfortable enough in the end and well done go Djokovic. Novak at Wimbledon compared to the field is just on a different level.
 
Nick really played well tonight despite a few blips which where more to do with Novak’s brilliancy anyway, didn’t expect that from him at all

Losing his serve at 4-3 in 3rd cost him massively, you could argue he didn't fully recover from being broken in second set
 
A nice tribute for Sue Barker.

yeah a nice puff piece. shame nick’s family would rather piss on his twitching corpse than celebrate his career and achievements like this.

Yeah both fell apart in final against him sadly just at the critical moments
 
People always seem to use the emotional exuberance of the latest win to proclaim goathood. Best to wait a few weeks before all of that dies down, then rethink it.
 
Shit final. Insufferable wanker vs. insufferable wanker. In the end the insufferable wanker won.

To be fair, it's a pretty small sample size to compare to no?

Novak - W 18-22
Rafa - RG 05-08, 10-14, 17-20
Roger - W 03-07, US 04-08
Sampras - W 97-00
Borg - RG 78-81, W 76-80

I mean if he weren't an idiot, he'd be matching Roger's double strangle hold on Slams with the AO, but you know, he is an idiot, that's legit the only thing Federer has going for him now and he had the chance to take that away from him too.
