[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1090769, member: 70552"] Federer won Wimbledon at 35 in 2017. But yes now Rafa has now become the oldest male grand slam champion. Both Nadal and Djokovic have blown the whole not winning many slams past the age of 30. I think prior to them the most was 4 by Federer, Agassi and IIRC Connors. Now Nadal and Djokovic have won 8 majors past each past the age of 30. Quite incredible, but yes whether they suffer for it later on in life with their joints, I wouldn’t bet against it. These tennis GOATs aren’t normal human beings and they must each love it - what else can they do in life where are still winning and playing in front of thousands? And keep that cash cow machine in terms of sponsorship and endorsements going. Most of the previous greats had enough of the injuries and the travelling to make them stop. [/QUOTE]
