But lets also face it...Tennis being a more physically demanding game should technically have a shorter period of dominance for any one individual. Afterall the human body does have a window of peak performance, and in a game like tennis where that physical abililty is tested quite severely I'd say it's a game where it's hard to dominate your peers for more than about 4 years. Tiger will dominate the tour for the next 10 years easily. If Federer can dominate the mens tennis field for another 3 that will be one hell of a feat.
