The quality Alcaraz apart has been woeful. No idea what the viewing figures are but I'll bet they are poor as well TV wise.
Really cannot see anyone beating Nadal and Djokovic at the Majors outside of Alcaraz for another couple of years at least if both are healthy .
I'll say it again. Murray will win Miami as Alcaraz will be tired after he wins IW which I think he is almost certain to do.

Maybe you miss the point. The fact I think Murray ( I love murray but he is obviously not the player he was and is mid 30s) can win Miami and am tipping him is why I think Nadal and Djokovic will win the slams. Alcaraz apart I just don't see anyone with the mental strength to win a slam unless both Nadal Djokovic are out of a Major.

Even as a Rafan, I do not see Rafa to win another hardcourt slam. It wouldn't surprise me if Djokovic doesn't win another hardcourt slam either, despite him winning AO'23 recently. I mean they are going to be 37 and 36 soon and are getting older, slower, and weaker as athletes, and I do think there are quite a few youngsters who have the ability to take them out in the hardcourt slams; Alcaraz, Medvedev, and Zverev are ready, IMO, and Tsitsipas also with an outside chance, if he improves his consistency.

Rafa will continue to win RGs. Djokovic and Rafa, one of them will continue to win Wimbledon, simply because the youngsters on the tour do not know how to play on grass.

Djokovic could win slams for a couple more years, but it doesn't make sense to draw conclusions from a single tournament(which isn't even a slam), if you only go by Dubai then you could conclude that Medvedev will dominate Djokovic on HC. Djokovic is mentally strong enough to get through any type of field if he's allowed to compete well physically, so it mostly depends on how long Djokovic can stay in top shape instead of the competition.

You also predicted Murray would win IW and we saw how that turned out. :sneaky:

It’s a very poor standard at the top of the game right now. The gulf between a top 5 player and a top 50 level player is as small as I’ve ever seen it.

It makes me confident that Murray has at least 1 more slam in him, despite only having 1 hip.

You have a point but what does it have to do with Murray possibly winning Miami? I don't get it.

Since the "Djokovic can't play Miami" thread got closed by the swamp aka the mods I just want to state that I'm of course over the moon that the vaccination denial of Djokovic keeps getting him kicked in the ass 🤭

Stay strong, anti vaccination conspiray nutcases. I'm sure redemption will come soon, LOL

I'll stick with it.
You should put your money where your mouth is, place some bets. Then you can brag about how much money you won and how wrong I was afterwards. :yeah:
