If he plays in all four, I think Djokovic wins the calendar year Slam this year and takes away any debate at all that he’s the GOAT.

The non Big 3 are just not on his level. Nadal is obviously hurt beyond just get an injury and then recover.
If Nadal somehow gets himself healthy for one more run, he and Djokovic are co-favorites for the French Open. If Nadal isn’t 100% then Djokovic is the favorite.
Djokovic is the favorite at Wimbledon.
He’d have the pressure on him at the US Open again if he wins the first three and didn’t handle that great the last time.
Not sure who his real challenger is at this point. I wonder about a post US Open regression from Alcaraz. Plus he’s already been dealing with injury issues and he’s young.
Medvedev has fallen off since he reached #1 briefly.
It’s a long season and maybe someone will emerge, and there are players who can get hot and take out Djokovic on a given day, but that becomes difficult in a best of 5 match. Plus, Djokovic is playing with a grudge and I think he plays his best with a grudge.
