Follow Us

Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic are as fit as a fiddle, and they do not seem to allow anyone else to join their major-club. The ‘Big Three’ have an unprecedented dominance on the Grand Slam courts for more than a decade and a half, and no one seems to break their victory-rhythm. Also over the past three years, the trio has rotated major titles amongst themselves. And this Australian summer, it seems unlikely that a new face will lift a major trophy in the upcoming fortnight in Melbourne.
