After this Wimbledon.
Starting with 2014 (simply because it is ten years ago), there have been 38 slams played. On the women's side, there have been 21 different winners; the winningest player was Serena (6), then Naomi and Iga (4 each).
On the men's side, there have been 9 slam winners; Novak dominates the list.

My question is: is this good for either tour? On the women's side, if you like variety, that is your tour, but no "great" champion is emerging. Iga can be it and seems to be on her way, but so far, she is going the Rafa way: dominant on clay, very good on the other surfaces but not outstanding.
On the men's, Alcaraz has taken the mantle; he is a worthy #1 (although Novak has by no means left the scene, and if he wins the USO, he remains the top player) but there seems to be no contemporary rival for him. And that makes the sport less appealing.

I wonder if Sinner and Rune will step up soon.

Last: who are the ATP players that have been passed and will not reach slam glory?

Tsitsipas, Dimitrov and Kyrgios for starters.

I don't think it's too late for Tsitsipas - he's almost 25 so he should have about 4 years realistically to win a major. I won't say it's a sure thing, and I think his chances are lower than they were a couple years ago, but he did come within a set just two years ago.
