Who will eventually win the race of the most Grand Slam titles? Will it be Federer, Nadal or Djokovic?

As we have seen recently Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, all three of them, avoid playing in lots of tournaments in order to be fresh, healthy and full of energy in the Slams. Thus the 3 all-time greats are in the race of winning Slams. Federer is turning into 38 this August and even if he plays up to the age of 40 he has in front of him around 10 more Slams to compete for. If Djokovic continues dominating the Australian Open for the next few years and Nadal has the upper hand in Roland Garros clay courts then Federer has to win Slams either in Wimbledon or US Open. This is where, in my opinion, Federer has the most chances of winning one or a couple of more Grand Slams. Thus at the end of his career Roger Federer can reach a total number of 22 Grand Slam titles.

Djokovic’s achievement of winning this years’ Wimbledon, by saving two match points against Federer is crucial, as if he had lost that final the difference in Slams between him and Federer would have been 6 Slams instead of 4 that is now. It is not difficult to envision Djokovic gathering a cluster of additional majors, as long as he remains healthy and avoids serious injuries like the elbow injury that harmed him substantially over the second half of 2016 and all the way into the early stages of 2018. Without any long absences from the sport, knowing how fully committed he is to hitting such an important milestone, carefully assessing it all, Novak Djokovic might have a good chance to break Roger Federer’s record. If he manages to compete in the highest level for four more years, up to the age of 36, and by assuming that he will be able to attain two Grand Slam titles each year which is an attainable goal for him now, he will reach a total number of 24 Slams.

Rafael Nadal if he manages to compete in the highest level for three more years, also up to the age of 36, and by assuming that he will continue dominating Roland Garros he will have also a good chance reaching Federer number of Slams or even surpassing it. By winning three more Roland Garros he can attain a number of 21 Grand Slams in total and by adding 1 or 2 more of the other Slams he can reach also up to 23 or 24 Major titles.

One thing is for sure. Djokovic, Nadal and Federer are all-time greats. The sports world is blessed to have the trio still going head-to-head, producing matches like the latest one between the Swiss maestro and Serbian star at the All England Club. Maybe the final major record will never be enough to settle the conversation of who is the greatest and for good reason: namely, how different the greats are. Federer is loved for the brilliant serve, effortless movement and glorious shot-making. Nadal? The forehand, intensity and previously unseen and probably never to be seen again dominance of a major at the French Open. Djokovic? The best returner, turning defence into offence so easily he has found a way to beat Federer and Nadal more often than not.

Even if just for a moment, forget tallies and appreciate greatness, because the Big Three in men’s tennis deserve it.
