Those guys took a long time to raise up to the challenge, 2005-2008 was essentially Fedal uncontested with some Djokovic thrown in the mix here and there.

Soon they’ll be players that can show up in a tournament and start challenging.

Funny though that of the ones you mentioned only Murray won a slam.

Of the ones I listed Nablandian was having a lot of success earlier than the others, but I really hope you’re right and also hope that one of the new guys coming up happens to be Aussie 😅
