With how quickly he has made the transition to grass this season, I think all bets are off now. Hitting 10, 15, 20+ majors is obviously no joke and a lot of things have to go right starting with health, quality of competition etc.

Carlos could very well challenge the current big 3 considering he may spend a healthy part of his career battling players like Zverev, FAA, Sinner, Tsitsipas, Medvedev, Rublev and Rune for big titles. No offense to them, but they are not even in the same area code, and nowhere near the opposition quality that Roger, Rafa, Novak provided each other (not forgetting they also had to contend with Murray, Stan and Ferrer).

Hopefully at least one of the above will elevate themselves on the back of playing against Carlos repeatedly, but as of now I don't see anyone that will be able to challenge him for a number of years when Novak is fully finished.
