As the title says. I remember Nadal at USO 2010 being very close but I might even remember that wrong. Nadal's title run at RG 2017 I think was very close as well.
And even though the serve is a weapon - including for the weakest servers in men's tennis - a servebot like Federer couldn't win a slam without getting broken, not once in his career. With him possessing such a powerful, reliable, robotic weapon. And that is surprising.Servebot is one of the worst terms coined for tennis, simply jealous terminology usually used by fans of players that don't have a very good serve.
Remember this is Men's Tennis where the serve is supposed to be a weapon, not an introduction to a garden party.
Disdainfully,
