I dunno guys, I think Milos tops out as a 5-10 player. in a power vacuum where there's no Rafa/Nole/Fed/Andy, then he's got a chance at collecting a major or two. but the top dogs all have flawless movement, impenetrable defense, metronome groundstrokes and crazy versatility, on top of having at least one deadly weapon. Milos (and everyone else) can improve his serve return, backhand, etc. but not to the point where he's able to threaten the elites unless they're having a bad day.
that's nothing to be sad about though, having a Canadian boy in the top 10 is amazing. Genie on the other hand, is a completely different player than even at the Aussie. she's built up from excellent fundamentals, consistency and defense, and now she's added the ability to ragdoll her opponent left and right...reminds me of Djokovic actually. I'm comfortable saying without any homerism she has top 3 written all over her.
