[Temptation]

Yeah, is he the GOAT ?

This is controversial.


Most people have considered him the GOAT for ages now.


But recently Novak Djokovic surpassed everyone in the terms of Grand Slam Titles and records. Statistically Djokovic is the best.


But Federer is one of the most popular athletes of all time and a household name globally. His influence transcends the sport. His fanbase is bigger than Nadal and Djokovic combined so most people would call him the GOAT even today. You have zero interest in Tennis but I can bet you knew who Federer was and how he looked since your young days.

If you call Djokovic the GOAT I don't think people would be able to argue with you.



Djokovic and Nadal are boring defensive baseliners.


Federer is like an aesthetic magician, poetry in motion.


The former 2 have a stronger mentality while RF has more magic, talent and variety of shots.


Nadal is a clay court specialist and insanely invincible on clay. Playing Nadal on clay is impossible and the toughest challenge in the sport. Most of his Grand Slams are French Open titles.


Federer and Djokovic are way better than Nadal in the other 2 surfaces and more balanced in terms of surfaces.


Best Grass Court Player: Federer
Best Hard Court: Novak.


It's very complicated for a beginner like you. Feel free to ask me whatever you want about the sport.

Nah stay away from Tennis now. Federer retired. It's a defensive boring game now with a few exceptions.

“I think Novak, in that sense, lives things more intensely than the way I have lived them. For him, I think it would have been a bigger frustration if he had not achieved it… and maybe that’s the reason he achieved it.”

Meh, he was trying to take away from Djokovic by acting like he could have got he record if he cared about it as much as Djokovic.

So, basically Djokovic bettered him mentally.

I don't know what Nadal intended with that comment, but it came out as if he admits Djokovic's competitiveness was too much for him to handle.

"Novak wanted it more"


Says the guy who played through injuries throughout his career in his own words. So was he faking the injuries or did he forget them?


Djokovic literally gave up Grand Slams for his anti-vaccine stand. If he was that desperate he'd have never done that.


Nadal is SALTY. Federer has the eye test and the fan following. Nole has the statistics and the records. Both their legacies will age better whereas Nadal will be known as a claybot(relatively speaking obviously).

 

[Gnidrologist]

Wasn't Nadal pimping vax publicly, when the government propaganda was at it's peak? That alone shows how weak mentally he is.

 

[Horatio]

@KingLeo10 what is going on with alcaraz

 

[MagIX]

Djokovic won his 7th ATP Finals!
Congrats

 

[Nello]

Yup. Sinner a complete shadow of himself. Was clearly affected by the pressure, he didn't play this bad for months.

 

[Rassvet]

Alcaraz got smoked. Zverez could have served it out for a 6-1 6-3 6-3, but let it drag on a bit longer.

 

[KingLeo10]

Djokovic will win this AO with ease.

And probably calendar slam this season unless the ghost of Nadal can still muster up enough to still win the FO.
