No, but I still like him
>>
>>73920557
Aside H2H stats, win% in some opens, and shit related to the French Open, Federer is literally ahead of Nadal in every statistic.
>>
>>73920803
H2H is what matters though
>>
>>73920848

So Djokovic is the GOAT if he leads Nadal and Federer on H2H?
>>
>>73920557
Those are skewed heavily by clay though aren't they?
>>
No but neither is Federeddit who dominated one of the softest eras ever until Nadal blossomed, doesn't even have a winning record against Nadal

Federer never had serious injuries though

Nadal is shit on everything but clay that's why

9-7 Nadal on hard

so 10-9 Nadal on non clay courts

Which means they're evenly matched, especially given that Federer is extremely susceptible to Nadals game.

Murray is clearly better than Nadal
>>
>>73925887
Claybabby, unsustainable playstyle, his knees were basically gone before he turned 30, and the roids don't help. Of course he is one of the game's greatest, merely on number of titles won, and I don't think we'll live to see anyone dominate on clay quite as brutally as he did, but Federer is on a whole another level, and holds nearly every imaginable record in the sport. The sole blemish being his h2h against Nadal, whose playstyle, specially on clay, appeared to be uniquely tailored to defeat Fed's whole gameplan.

Murray didn't win French Open and Australian Open, Muhamad.

how would you weigh Olympic gold in relevance to grand slam wins?

I'd have to say one Olympic Gold medal is worth at least 3 grand slam wins, maybe 4 considering it's rarity and status.

WTF on the otherhand is a meme

They are irrelevant

If he wins, he will eventually surpass Fed since this is probably Fed's best shot. They both got super lucky with Andy and Novak going out early.
>>
>>73920848
Then Djokovic > Nadal.
>>
>>73927225
Exactly. Fed's only weakness is the high backhand. Nadal's favorite serve and cross-court forehand are the perfect weapon against that shot.

Federer actually has a better head-to-head against Djokovic than Nadal does. Match-ups matter in tennis.

Looks like Murray is the new GOAT while Massu, Rosset and Mecir are in the conversation. Thanks for the insight lad.
>>
>>73929055
The Olympic gold has no historic significance in tennis. In fact, the only reason anyone cares about it now is because the media started hyping it up before 2008 and 2012 because it was the only thing Federer hadn't won. It's a literal meme created by the media within the last decade.

2013 US Open series Nadal was the greatest player I've ever watched. I've only paid attention to tennis since around 2010 though.

From 7 years of watching and playing I'd say Djokovic, Fed, and Nadal are equally the best depending on the day they play, although in my time watching Djokovic has been the most consistently great player
>>
>>73936636
>only watching since 2010

So you didn't even watch peak fed. You have seen old past his prime fed
>>
From the wiki page:

As of January 2010, Nadal is the international ambassador for Quely, a company from his native Mallorca that manufactures biscuits, bakery and chocolate coated products; he has consumed their products ever since he was a young child.

Autists sure like their snackies.

As a young boy, he would run home from school to watch Goku in his favorite Japanese anime, Dragon Ball. CNN released an article about Nadal's childhood inspiration, and called him "the Dragon Ball of tennis" owing to his unorthodox style "from another planet".

That settles the debate right there. Even Djokovic has 5 ffs.

>>73929055
It's VERY irrelevant I put it lower than all the master 1000s. It has no historical significance and has only been around in the open era since 1988. It's also very annoying as it normally condenses the grass session even more than it is really messing up players breaks between tournaments. It was hyped up alot back in 2008/2012 because federer didn't have a gold so people think it is vaguely important. It's a great opportunity to represent your country but that's it.
