I once watched an interview with tennis legend John McEnroe. He said that there are some young players who will be able to replace the position of the top 3 seen from their played, but why untill now has not happened one of the reasons because young players are too active or busy on social media. In my opinion this is just a matter of time because right now there are still 3 big eras, soon the young tennis players will replace them.

You guys have points in the discussions, unfortunately, I have ran out of merits to give to you.

Djokovic, Nadal and Federer are all aging, no doubt about that. I think Federer started this kind of sabbatical in tennis, taking long lay-offs to heal his body and help him recover mentally, and so is Nadal. Only Djokovic is active compare to the two but we all understand that he is the younger of the big 3.

As for the young players, yes all of them are capable of winning a Grand Slam in the future, no question about it. But the big three is so dominant in the last ten years. That's why it's very difficult for the young generations to somewhat break that streak, unless they retire or got injured. Those young guys really need to elevate their games, specially the mental aspects of the game.

Now in next few months we will be able to have new faces in Mes Tennis as new generation is already on few players doing very good like Medvedev Zev Thiem and Tsitsipas they all capable of playing very good tennis for top 3 Federer is now going down as age factor is also going against him Nadal and Djokovic will be here for some more fun.

Those guys are really chasing the big 3 here like two years ago, yes they can win few masters tournaments, but in the grand slam, they really faltered that's why tennis is still in the hands of Djokovic, Nadal and Federer. As you can see age is not a factor for the big 3, of course they are aging, but they can play high level tennis when it matters, that is in the grand slam tournaments.
I also believe the big 3 are still in shape but age somehow affect them sometime and experience is what they use to win against the young star player. However, this might not work anytime soon because it pretty clear that players like Zverev, Medvedev, Thiem etc which are still 20s are starving to have the taste of become top player.
Now Federer is already 39 so I sure this year he is not going to reach on top in any big tournament as he is struggling and Nadal and Djokovic both can stay for some time but as from these new generation players able to set they will rule because times never stop its going to happen in just very short period.

Even though Federer is 39, I still think he has a good chance of winning another grand slam. Look at Wimbledon last year, he even had 2 matchpoints against Djokovic.
He was struggling this Australian Open but was not 100% fit, especially in his match against Djokovic. The young generation is coming but I don't see anyone of these talents (such as Thiem, Medvedev, Zverev, Kyrgios) dominate ike Federer, Nadal or Djokovic have done in the past.

The big 3, specially Federer and Nadal and selectively picking tournaments they want to join that's why they have stayed long at their age. And I have said before, they have the mentality, not just the skills to really compete with the young generations of tennis players. Definitely, sooner or later the young guys are going to catch up with them, but for now, we need to see the young generations proved it this year specially in grand slams.

In the last 12 Grand Slam tournaments, the women have had eight first-time major singles champions. Joining that list on Saturday at the Australian Open was Sofia Kenin, an assured American seeded just 14th.

So that's how crazy the women side, as we have said it's totally unpredictable.

In the last 21 Grand Slam tournaments, the men haven’t had any first-time major singles champions.

At the end of the 2009 season, the top three players in the rankings were, in order, Federer, Nadal and Djokovic. This week, a decade later, the order is Djokovic, Nadal and Federer.

The dominance of the big three is still evident a decade after. But we all know that down the line they will be challenge, but as of now, if will take a lot to overcome them.

Well deserved for Djokovic winning this title.
However, we have to congratulate Thiem for facing Nole equally and looking him straight to the eyes.
This game made him more experienced and maybe he is going to win Djokovic in the next tournament.
I respect Djokovic for his performance during the final of the tournament and like some people say "experience do count" but there big chance for the next year game to be different.

These are the reason i usually bet anyone win for the women game.

I will certainly take alot to overcome the three tough guy but if we check closing the performance of the tennis players (Thiem, Zev etc) these days the day everything will change is approaching and i also believe most tennis fans also want a new face to be number 1 in the men side.

Mental toughness is what really separates the elite tennis player to the young players we have right now.
This is true and he showed that in the Finals where it matters most.
No doubt he is one of the best tennis player in the world now and you can guarantee a win of your money every time you bet on him to win.

Thiem vs Nadal was a great match also, this young fella upset Nadal in the Quarter-Finals so it makes me think that he can compete with the elite and in fact he showed his heart out getting ahead in the match, but Novak was just too clever and too smart, he knows when to attack and get this win.

Clever, too smart and on a different level that's why it's very very difficult to beat Novak at this point. Who would have thought that he can make that remarkable comeback? There was some controversy though, when he was taking medical timeouts in crucial parts of the game, but I don't think he do it to break Thiem's momentum.

Great match and a big victory for Djokovic.
He pulled himself out of a difficult situation, reversed the match and won.
Once again, Djokovic showed why he is the greatest tennis player of all time.
Undoubtedly, Djokovic will soon surpass both Federer and Nadal with the number of GS titles.

One of the best performance for Djokovic, we all think that he is already out, but he came through once again and denied Thiem. We always discussed that we wanted someone new to bring home the trophy for this year, but Djokovic just up holded the status quo of the big 3. It's a five setter indeed.

One thing about Thiem is that he is constantly improving as years goes by. For sure one day he will win a Grand Slam. Congrats to both of them.

Djokovic is just unstoppable when it comes to the Australian Open, he is always ready and up for the challenge which is why he has now won 8 Australian Open titles. Like you and I have been saying in here for over a year now, Djokovic will most likely be the greatest grand slam winner in history as he is almost certain to now pass Nadal and Federer and we may not see another Man do this for a very long time. If Djokovic can do what he did last year then he will be just two off from Federer, I'm thinking that Nadal might equal Federer on 20 grand slam titles with the French Open as he is very hard to beat. Djokovic still at least has 3-5 years if he is able to stay fit and healthy. It was looking good for Thiem but again when he is in front of the match he isn't able to go on with it and win. We have also been saying this in here for the past two years about him, I just hope that one day he can get it right and win a grand slam. Congrats to Djokovic on once again winning the AO.

Correct, I'm glad you mentioned it, I think Australian Open is one of the best tournaments that Djokovic really excel throughout his career. We have so many discussions in the last two years and still no one can break him in this tournament. So we know that he still has a lot of years ahead of him, compare to Nadal so breaking Federer's record is really within sight of him. Again, Thiem has the chance, but still not there to the levels of the big three as he melted again in the pressure of big events such as this. For sure Thiem will have this time raising the AO trophy in the coming years as he mature and have that experience under his belt.

Djokovic is a great tennis player, He is the first tennis player that can win Grand Slam tittle in 3 different decade, and now He is in first rank replaced Nadal place.
What I saw on match is this is the first time (if I'm not mistaken)  Djokovic able to turn things around and win the match, I almost chose not to continue watching the match in third set because I saw the match which no longer interesting but really beyond the usual, sets 4 and 5 returned to a tight match between the two players.
Soon Thiem will able to win the Grand Slam title

Congratulations on Djokovic and those who back him, I was wondering what the odds are when Thim was up 2 sets to 1.
^ Novac Djokovic is really the best tennis player for me. I tried to watch the game in Rod Laver Arena and the 6-4-2-6-6 isn't bad for him.
He won against Federer easily last January 30 and now this is it. This Serbian person is really great. He has the best focus and I've witnessed it. Nevertheless, did you see how did Djokovic make it out of that situational play? Very good reverse! He really deserved it!
I was thinking Thiem can win but after watching this final now I am sure Djokovic is really machine he can stay here in tennis for some more years and this new generation need something special to beat this insane robot what a player and what a human he deserve to be world greatest players.

Of the big 3, Novak is somewhat the youngest so probably he can stay a bit longer than Federer and Nadal and probably will go on to break Federer's GS record. Mental toughness is what really separates the elite tennis player to the young players we have right now. This is Thiem's 3rd attempt and failure to win a GS, but I'm sure he will be back hungry.
