Is Novak the Greatest Tennis Player Ever?

Is Novak the Greatest Tennis Player Ever?
More than 3 decades ago, a 4-year-old Novak was handed his first racket and that could very well be the best gift he has received in his life. Even at that point, you could argue that he was born to play the game but that’s the case with a couple of other players, so what’s so special about Novak? I’ll tell you.

Hey Everyone! When I first made the video he had not won the 22nd yet thats why I said 21 in the video. But deep down inside we all knew he was going to get the 22nd at AO

[velikoslovog]

Joint-most Slams
Joint-most ATP Finals
Most Masters 1000s
Most weeks at no.1
Most years as no.1
Positive H2H against Fedal
Highest win %
On pace for most titles ever

Yep, I'm gonna say he's the greatest.

[andronicemarinis]

To stand his ground and determine what goes into his body, makes him a man and a sportsman deserving respect and the highest accolades.

[whatevergoesforme]

His greatness to me is when he put his health first and stood his ground despite the pressure and did not care if he won more trophies. I admire a person who is willing to sacrifice his/her career and in this instance, the prize money, because of his/her beliefs.

Great man, beautiful soul and became the greatest tennis player❤❤❤❤❤

From Nadal fan
Djokovic has become the greatest player of all time after Roland Garros 2021 for me
After Australian Open 2022 it`s not even a debate anymore

I've been a Rafa fan since 2006, but I have no doubt that Novak is the greatest tennis player ever.

Neither Rafa nor Roger have ever had to overcome what Novak has. If he plays either of them, the crowd is always in their favour. In fact, in general crowds (especially at Wimbledon and the US Open, and lately at the Australian Open) have always tried their best to get under his skin. If Rafa or Roger had to deal with that level of animosity, chances are their careers wouldn't have turned out the same.

And then you add the mentality. Warrior-like. In the last decade, he's been the biggest fighter on tour with maybe the exception of Rafa. The amount of times he's been down 1-0/2-0 in sets in Grand Slams and come back is nothing short of astonishing.

He also has no weaknesses. He defends incredibly. Attacks with great variety. Has a formidable forehand and a brutal backhand. He volleys well. He covers the court better than anyone in tennis history. He slides on grass and hard courts with ease.

And most important of all, he has a winning record against his two great rivals. He's beaten Rafa twice at Rafa's favourite Grand Slam. He's beaten Roger three times at his favourite Grand Slam. He has all nine Masters 1000 and all four Grand Slams. No one else in history has achieved this. He's tied with Roger for most ATP World Tour Finals (Rafa has none). He has the record for most weeks at no 1. He will soon have the record for most titles overall and most Grand Slams.

When it's all said and done, Novak Djokovic will go down as the greatest tennis player of all time bar none.

[Pearlruby]

Yes, he is and has truly earned it the hard way at times. Which makes being greatest all the better.

[peaceonearth]

These kinds of questions should not be asked again. No ifs and buts, NOVAK is the GOAT!

[Seagalfree]

Novak IS the G.O.A.T!🎾🏆
He also gives back; he is an active inspiration to the people! believing in good education and safe environment for children.
He is a great asset for the sport and humanity!⚘🌎

[cobrakilla]

Excellent video, thank you.
I didn't know all the hardship he had to overcome to achieve what he has in this sport. This is some Muhammad Ali level of sportsman.
It is crazy. He is one of the greatest athletes to ever walk on this earth, and the media isn't talking about him, in this positive light, as much as they should!

[tomaskopolia]

374 weeks and counting. Thats like, more than a six and a half years at No1. 99% of players dream about being top 10 for 6 years. Its just unspeakable difference between him and the rest. No debate anymore, he is the one.

[beatrizpinheiro]

We 💖 you, Djokovic !!! Respect from Brasil !!! 💚💛🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[eiyp]

Everyone knows it, the real question is "is everyone mature enough to accept it"

[nevenkam]

NOVAK JESTE NAJBOLJI !!! BROJ JEDAN U TENISU NEMA NIKO KO MOŽE DA MU STANE NA CRTU. VOLIMO TE NOLE 💕💕💕

[khurramiqbal]

I am a huge Fed fan and the last decade was of mostly pain when fed fell short in clutch moments especially against novak. Novak has broken 90% of fed's records and Wimbledon will be another milestone. Once i thought Federer's record would last a life time but novak mental strength endurance and clutch play are awesome. He has had the toughest era and he has come from behind. He may not be liked like fedal but he is surely 1000% the GOAT.

[antonreyneke]

He absolutely has no weaknesses in his game, and off cource the best returner ever, add his nerves off steel and its a done deal

[djfunkychicken]

Most casual tennis fans forget 2 things.. he really was apart of Roger's era and there weren't many players that Novak missed playing from Roger's opponents
He turned pro in 2003.. and played against all the oldies like Greg Rusedski(49) Tim Henman(48) Carlos Moya(46) Tommy Haas(44) Seb Grosjean(44)
Since *2007* Novak has been ranked #3 ..and only dropped out once with surgery (2017) and recently with corrupt ATP ranking

[rajazoraja]

Look at his sliding backhand on all 3 pads with a diagonal after.., he floats like no one before and after

[minimalizam]

And on the top of all that, he is able to give interviews in at least 5 languages. Some say more, but I don't speak them so I can't say how good his knowledge is. It is good enough to hold a conversation.
