A calendar year slam would be cool to see.

Given the lack of grass court specialists these days I expect he should win Wimbledon providing his arm is all good but there are a lot of guys like Medvedev and Alcaraz that excel on hard courts. I feel bad for Ruud not being able to win a set in two FO finals and I thought he had a chance in that first set as he was hit for hit with Djokovic until the tie breaker and after that his level dropped and he played like a defeated player. If he's going to continue to get to Grand Slam finals he needs to learn how to maintain a higher level for an entire match as it's kind of a bummer for the final to be a formality. You can't throw in the towel after the first set like that.
