The debate of GOAT (Greatest Of All Times) does not cease to be in force almost after each Grand Slam that is played. With Rafael Nadal having already equaled Roger Federer and with Novak Djokovic, on the hunt for these two, among the fans of these tennis players there is always a debate about who of the three is the best of all time and it is difficult for all of them to agree. A legend of this sport like Rod Laver, which for many was considered the best until the Big 3, commented on Fox Sports that, for him, the best of all is Roger.
“For me, Roger Federer is the champion of his era,” begins the Australian. “I really think about it. If you look at his numbers and records, there is a lot to make sure that he is the best in all history ”, he adds about the Swiss. Of course, Rod says that we should keep an eye on Nadal and Djokovic. “Let’s give the other boys a little time. They can come up and be as good as Roger. Djokovic is going that way, alongside Nadal, because he has won a lot of tournaments and his consistency is incredible ”.
Wimbledon, the best option for Federer
Federer, who this year decided not to attend the Australian Open, will return to the circuit in March, at the Doha and Dubai tournaments. “When I spoke to Roger last year, he thought he could still play his best tennis at 40 and I think he’s working on it. Unfortunately, his knee is giving him some problems, but let’s hope that that operation he had will make him leave that injury behind, “says Laver, that if he had to say which Grand Slam is where Federer has more options, he does not doubt it. “I don’t think we will see him win at Roland Garros, but I think Wimbledon is where he has the most options, as is the US Open.”
