Well put.
Like it's not the done thing to be suspicious when a 36 year old man starts dominating a sport where traditionally the best years of a player's career are over once they hit 30.
Sampras14 slams, one in his 30s, 32 to be precise
, Lendl, 8 Slams, all in his 20s
Reached 19 Finals, one in his 30s
Becker, 6 Slams, all in his 20s
Agassi, 8 Slams, 2 in his 30s, his last one at 33 the young pup!
McEnroe, 8 Slams, none in his 30s
Edberg, 8 Slams, none in his 30s, his last one coming at 26
Connors, 8 Slams, 2 in his 30s, last one cming at 31.
So there we have 60 Grand slam wins, 5 won in their 30s, by a collection of some of the greatest players of all time.
Serena Williams is the only other player to win 10 majors in her 30s.

Novak has 11 slams in his 30s. The next best is Nadal with 8. Next is Fed with 4.
Then we have Laver, who won 4 at 31.
Ken Rosewall won 4 in his 30s back in the 70s.
But no, nothing odd at all at all about the numbers won by Novak, Rafa and Roger. I mean, you wouldn't even be a small bit suspicious, would you?
