3/4 through the majors, half way through the calendar year.

I was looking up the last time he didn’t win a title, and apparently it hasn’t happened since 2005 before he entered the atp top 100. Since winning his first title in 2006, there hasn’t been a single year where he has not won a title.

Will this year be the first?

I know something similar has already been posted (), but I loved that thread so much I wanted it to be done again.

I like Rybakina because she won Wimbledon after the Russian Fed dumped her, and Carlos because he lowkey looks like a 1950s Omar Sharif.

Give me your wildest reasonings.

2008:

• Young Djokovic wins his first slam at the AO

• Young Nadal wins Roland Garros & Wimbledon

• Federer (who the year prior won 3 slams and ended the prior year no.1 defends his title at the US Open)

• Spain wins Uefa Euro

• Boston Celtics are NBA champions

2024 so far:

• Young Sinner wins his first slam at the AO

• Young Alcaraz wins Roland Garros & Wimbledon

• Spain wins Uefa Euro

• Boston Celtics are NBA champions

• Djokovic???
