This looks more like Whining just to put Novak at top you people will disregard everything great Roger has achieved. Whatever the competition, Federer dominated his peak for max years. Novak between 2012 to 2014 amounted to 3 slams which will not suggest GOAT career.

First the author will try to prove how ROGER is NOT better than NOVAK. Then if he apply same rules to RAFA, it would mean RAFA IS GOAT. That’s pure bullshit. Rafa is one tough guy who won’t go out quickly. But he is also a guy who is getting beaten in first week at Wimbledon REGULARLY and skips USOpen. NO WAY he can be GOAT.

Now, when the author uses same measurement like ROGER on RAFA, RAFA has beaten NOVAK so many times at ROLAND GARROS. BUT NO NO NO, 1 victory in RAFA’s worst year is enough to prove NOVAK DOES NOT HAVE ONESIDED rivalry at ROLAND GARROS.

Whole article undermines Roger’s achievements when Delpo beating Roger is bad but Stan beating Novak isn’t. Roger is at least today the best of the three guys today, greatest of ALL TIME, that’s delusional. Can’t compare eras. But at least to be GREATEST only 1 year domination and ELO (wtf ranking? where is Safin and how guys like Tsonga, Ferrer and worst of all Nishikori on the list when multislam champion Safin isn’t?) ranking is not enough. It means giving your best at every tournament even when you are not in your peak. Novak is still in his peak so can’t say what his post peak would look like. Rafa definitely would be very bad, just look at Hewitt. Roger is best player to play past 30 with such consistency at least in past 10 years when game is becoming more and more physical.

Unless Novak takes Roger’s slams, his consistency in slams and be same week in top 2 as Roger he can’t be considered better than Roger. And neither can 1 slam favorite Nadal.
