Seems like many all time greats, legends of tennis, won their first and last slam at the same venue. Sort of destiny. Full circle.
Sampras won his first and last slam at the USO
Borg won his first and last slam at RG
Graf won her first and last slam at RG
Navratilova won her first and last slam at Wimbledon
Evert won her first and last slam at RG
Billie Jean King won her first and last slam at Wimbledon
Tilden won his first and last slam at Wimbledon
Federer won his first and last slam at Wimbledon?
Has Roger won his last slam already?

And there are others as well.
The list is very long.

Federer can win another three slams I think.

I seriously doubt Federer will win 20 slams when it took him 2 and half years to go from 16 to 17 slams.
He's not reaching enough slam finals since 2010(one slam final per year) to reach 20 slams.

The only reason he won Wimbledon was because Nadal was knocked out early

Well he has just won the last one,lets see what happens at the next one before we write his obituary
I personally think he has one more major left in him,I find it very hard seeing him win another 3,not impossible but highly unlikely
He will have a shot at winning another Wimbledon if roof is used it becomes an indoor tournament
Sampras recently claimed he thinks Roger could retire with 8 or 9 Wimbledon titles

People have never won a major in tennis
I see people on ja606 are pondering that maybe Rafa has won his last slam and now Feds has won his last one too?
hmm Unless Djokovic wins about 25 of them it looks good for our Andy doesn't it? Who else is going to win them?

He's too good not to win another 2-3.

He'll always be in with a shout at US Open, French Open and Wimbledon.
It's all about desire really, and at 31, how do you motivate yourself to try and be better when you're already the best of all time?
