Djoker is playing a similar style nowadays, as his movement and court-coverage has improved at a ridiculous rate. He's suddenly become one of the best movers in the game, if not the best. I read somewhere that Djoker took up yoga, so the assumed flexibility improvement from yoga should help.
Cris ~ Hard to say how many so-and-so would have won if so-and-so had never existed... That's why I don't like using the term GOAT, especially in tennis. Too much has changed over the years, from the equipment and the courts, to the conditioning and physical attributes of the players. Best of an era, yes, but not of all time.
