And your point is?? He did have two or more of all slams.
No way one can compare Federer with Rob.

If Agassi can beat Medvedev in 1999, 12 years into his tennis career, surely Federer can possibly find a Medvedev type at some point in his career as well?

But he hasn't. He only found Nadal.

The point of depleted field can be made of mens' circuit right now. As Federer faka mathey goal dicchey. Roddick is mentally weak. Hewet is way past his prime. Nadal is clay player. Safin has his share of injuries. Blake does not know his potential. French open is never easy for hard court players and that is a fact. Somehow Agassi mastered it and Federer still hasn't.

Grinding out matches wasn't his style. Serve and volley was his best weapon which has no bearing in Clay.

Haven't won the French yet and that is the bottom line.
