The issue is Nadal isn't even playing badly, he's doing his thing, but Djokovic is just unplayable when he's like this

If he wins the French it will be the 2nd time he has held all 4 slams, something Nadal or Federer haven't done.

He will also have completed the career slam twice something netiher of them have done, if he wins the french he is Goat.

He'll never be the GOAT because of his boring robotic style.


He's definitely back though, probably had the two most dominant periods of the modern era of tennis.

It will not matter when he surpasses Federer and Nadal.

Also as much as iove both of them, Nadal mainly amassed his titles on clay and federer has not done much the last 8 years with djokovic about, his only success the last few years was due to a blip in djokovic career.
