And don’t forget that Fed got a large majority of his slams in the weak era compared to Novak who got almost all if not every single slam in a much more competitive era. He also happened to reach his first significant peak in 2011, which also just so happens to be smack bang in the middle of Nadal’s prime between 2008-2013.

It's really not fair for Federer. He had 1 main rival - NADAL. He did everything he could to crack the code, even changing to a larger racket and improving his backhand. 2017 was evidence that Federer had indeed figured Nadal out. Djokovic was a monkey wrench in all of this. Federer must have been like, "Who is this guy??? I don't need another GOAT to contend with. Are you kidding me!?"
@viksinha5410

Federer didn’t really decline until 2016; until then he was always very consistent in making deep runs at grand slams and mostly lost to other GS champions. It was much harder for Federer to win slams after 30 than it has been for Djokovic because 2011-15 provided the highest level of competition men’s tennis has ever seen. I’m putting Federer above Nadal because he has been far more consistent; Nadal has lost to lesser players (players who have achieved much much less in their careers) much more frequently, even when he was in his prime. From 2003-2016, Federer had only one very bad season (2013) when he only made it to one grand slam SF and crashed after that. Nadal has had quite a few: 2009, 2012 (second half), 2014 (second half), 2015-16. And for Novak it’s even better: from 2011-now he has had only 1 and a half very bad seasons (2017-18).

Are we talking about 2003-2009 federer or 2009 on federer? 2003-2009 federer was the best player of all time. He played at the highest level of anyone in any era including djokovic. When the courts were fast like they were then, nobody could beat him. Once the courts slowed down it favored more defensive players like nadal and djokovic. That is why you see most of federers majors were during that 2003-2009 stretch.

The sport of tennis has evolved into an international sport, thanks to the rivalry of the Big Three, and it is rooted in a long historical tradition that has yet to be identified with the Byzantine Empire where the royalty played the game in the first grass tennis court some 10 centuries or so ago. That said, the sport spread to other European and Russian courts, eventually the British Isles. It never reached such popularity as we have today for reasons that can be explained. In the beginning the sport was looked at as entertainment for the rich and powerful, exclusively for the benefit of the Court. There is a Byzantine title 'Kyr' also given to those who master a profession, vocation, etc. To put everything in perspective, Novak Djokovic deserves to be anoited Kyr Novak.

Djokovic don't be diplomatic. I would say, if we say on teh half clay-half grass match, Nadal is definitely the winner. But Federer and Nadal, learnt the game on clay, you learnt on hard courts, I think surfaces don't matter, otherwise then we should also consider heat, humidity, balls, rackets into the mix since these all effect the game. If we look at averages, Borg won 11 in 6 years. Conors won on all three surfaces, US Open was clay or grass in some of his time. Laver completed the GS twice. Edberg has the junior GS. etc etc. Agassi competing at the finals against the best from two eras. The players, if required to overcome weather, balls, health, psychological issues, then lets not really worry about the court surface. Nadal considered a clay court specialist, has won 4 on the fastest surface against prime hard court players, you and Daniil. he has won the French Open more bacause of his resilience, its the hardest to play on that surface. Not really because of speed, he is like a bull who doesn't understand when to give up. Main point is, all three of you are the gretaest, because of your perseverance and consistency and giving it all , mental state and game, and using your talents for the better.. Titles I would say are just a small part, mostly since everyone wants a winner. I would put in Murray and Wawrinka for their talent as well.

It's now "Novak Godziila" or "Godzilla Djokovic." Either name fits him well. It used to be irritating to me how the spiteful "Fedallers" would attack him, the poor things simply sick with resentment. Now they're just laughable When Novak (Godzilla) wins his 1,000th grand slam, having won them all playing left-handed, he still won't be that good in the secretly envious eyes of the Fedallers. It has to be a tough, tough gig being the best tennis player in the world, no?

Federer didn’t really decline until 2016; until then he was always very consistent in making deep runs at grand slams and mostly lost to other GS champions. It was much harder for Federer to win slams after 30 than it has been for Djokovic because 2011-15 provided the highest level of competition men’s tennis has ever seen. I’m putting Federer above Nadal because he has been far more consistent; Nadal has lost to lesser players (players who have achieved much much less in their careers) much more frequently, even when he was in his prime. From 2003-2016, Federer had only one very bad season (2013) when he only made it to one grand slam SF and crashed after that. Nadal has had quite a few: 2009, 2012 (second half), 2014 (second half), 2015-16. And for Novak it’s even better: from 2011-now he has had only 1 and a half very bad seasons (2017-18).

When the courts were fast like they were then, nobody could beat him. Once the courts slowed down it favored more defensive players like nadal and djokovic. That is why you see most of federers majors were during that 2003-2009 stretch.

The sport of tennis has evolved into an international sport, thanks to the rivalry of the Big Three, and it is rooted in a long historical tradition that has yet to be identified with the Byzantine Empire where the royalty played the game in the first grass tennis court some 10 centuries or so ago. That said, the sport spread to other European and Russian courts, eventually the British Isles. It never reached such popularity as we have today for reasons that can be explained. In the beginning the sport was looked at as entertainment for the rich and powerful, exclusively for the benefit of the Court. There is a Byzantine title 'Kyr' also given to those who master a profession, vocation, etc. To put everything in perspective, Novak Djokovic deserves to be anoited Kyr Novak.

Djokovic don't be diplomatic. I would say, if we say on teh half clay-half grass match, Nadal is definitely the winner. But Federer and Nadal, learnt the game on clay, you learnt on hard courts, I think surfaces don't matter, otherwise then we should also consider heat, humidity, balls, rackets into the mix since these all effect the game. If we look at averages, Borg won 11 in 6 years. Conors won on all three surfaces, US Open was clay or grass in some of his time. Laver completed the GS twice. Edberg has the junior GS. etc etc. Agassi competing at the finals against the best from two eras. The players, if required to overcome weather, balls, health, psychological issues, then lets not really worry about the court surface. Nadal considered a clay court specialist, has won 4 on the fastest surface against prime hard court players, you and Daniil. he has won the French Open more bacause of his resilience, its the hardest to play on that surface. Not really because of speed, he is like a bull who doesn't understand when to give up. Main point is, all three of you are the gretaest, because of your perseverance and consistency and giving it all , mental state and game, and using your talents for the better.. Titles I would say are just a small part, mostly since everyone wants a winner. I would put in Murray and Wawrinka for their talent as well.

bro come on. how can you surfaces don't matter? how come Rafa clearly plays and dominates differently than on clay and everyone else struggles against him on that surface

@@nixxor7 everyone struggles against him on all surfaces. Clay court is definitely harder, since your stepping and footwork is vital plus you need very resilient legs. Federer and Djokovic have that, Nadal beat Federer 3 times in the RG final.
Đoković Is IF not there yet as greatest.. but how Can be greatest IF dont have greatest opponent..Big 3 era in tennis Is Real not propaganda..only better thing would be IF they were same tennis age during Last 10years..but this continuum Is maybe better on itd own ..
I think both Novac and Nadal are better than Federer, he is also good though.

@@GhostruckerX but even with Fed nearing retirement and Nadal still at a prime age, Fed won most of their last matches. whe Fed was 27-32, no one between the ages of 31-37 was beating him much at all. if Fed would have changed his tactics sooner, he wold have beaten Nadal more times than not throughout his career.
Against Nadal he was mostly defending. Against Federer he was doing everything. But these are, without question, the BIG THREE. They're all #1. But like many other pros say: "Federer makes hard things look easy".
It's now "Novak Godziila" or "Godzilla Djokovic." Either name fits him well. It used to be irritating to me how the spiteful "Fedallers" would attack him, the poor things simply sick with resentment. Now they're just laughable When Novak (Godzilla) wins his 1,000th grand slam, having won them all playing left-handed, he still won't be that good in the secretly envious eyes of the Fedallers. It has to be a tough, tough gig being the best tennis player in the world, no?
Roger , then daylight . a true artist with a raquet . Everybody's obsessed with Majors , but Federer had every shot in the book plus more , the best serve and the most sublime one handed backhand , unlike the the ugly twohander of most others . That being said , I hope Novak gets to 25 and beyond , and leaves Nadal in the clay dust .
Lovely, smart man. Just like Nadal and Federer.
No important king grass or clay, record 23 grant slam is Highers my resume achievements ok,forget it Rafa or Roger,two player's is gone from challenge with tennis map now, ONLY Novak's till greatest many young player no can beat him.....,
Let's celebrate diversity of opinions... ....Djokovic is my 🐐! ND23 @ RG23 is an awesome achievement 👍👍
Real tennis fans know that Rafa v. Nole is the greatest rivalry in tennis and Djoker respects Nadal much more than Federer.

Real tennis fans or tennis fans under 25 years old? Lol the Federer Nadal rivalry recreated the sport and put it back on the map after the Sampras Agassi days died.. there is zero reason to disparage Federer to try to prop up your guy.. they were all great. End of story
When fedrer won 2009 wimbldon, and became mister grand slam, that time i said to my frndz if any one supass 100 slams he will never ever b like roger fedrer....after 14 years even nadal 22 and djoker 23...4 me they are still not near to roger class, goat is extra topic...but every fan of djoker and nadal always afraid to topic of roger, evry time they come and makes excuses like weak era etc etc etc, what is weak era?? Then 4 sure the greatest weak era is still going even 36 years old djoker winnig 11 slams, plzz stop make excuses and accept roger is tennis not goat, djoker is great nadal is great fedrer is tennis
Federer is the joradan of tennis. Nadal is the shaq oneal And Jokovich is the lebron. There is your answer.

@pashapasovski5860 in your dream.. Federer is definitely the master and smoothest,elegant and stylish tennis player of all time. After Federer, I would definitely choose Nadale or Sampras.. it's not about how many trophies you won, it's about how beautiful your game is. In the same way, LeBron can never compare to Jordan even if he has played longer and won more points than Jordan.

@HMKHABIB1 Actually Because Jordan has the more trophies than LBJ he Is GOAT ,you obviously don't know nothing about the discussion between the fans and the reason why Jordan is the GOAT and Djokovic is the GOAT of retrospective sports! Only one matrix counts and that's championship rings or whatever! On tennis is much easier to determine the GOAT, most victories in masters and Slams, mathematics doesn't lie ,so by a Rolex if you love the advertising so much! Hahaha, imagine a watch company changed its advertising because their representative isn't the GOAT!
If Nadal is best on clay, Federer best on grass and Djokovich best on hard court, doesn’t Djokovich get the advantage that there are two grand slams on his best surface to the other’s one?

For now it is true. Novak is still healthy and strong. Breaking Roger's record on grass is within reach.
Even winning more titles among The Big Three they are all great! Also, you cannot compare a young Rafa with Alcarāz... Rafa was insane on court. Carlitos needs his Daddy coaching him constantly. He needs to emancipate like The BigThree did.
Djokovic is like mj/lebron with the most titles and statistical achievements. Federer is like kobe, if you know you know. I think federers peak and genius was still the greatest version of tennis ever played
