writers and analysts are high on him likely because the 20-23 year old group in the ATP is a barren wasteland of future journeymen, ranging from 4th line grinders (Ryan Harrison) to all out nucking futs headcases (Tomic). In a few years when the big 4 get old and creaky, which future hall of famer do they pass the torch to?
I don't see anything in Raonic that screams multi-slam talent, but he's got fewer roadblocks to success than any of his peers. one lucky draw falls into place and he could position himself to grab a US Open title. Wimbledon should be a target as well, but his grass movement needs a lot of work.
