Even Rafael Nadal thinks Roger Federer is the GOAT - Rasheed
Grigor Dimitrov's former coach Roger Rasheed believes that Roger Federer is the greatest tennis player of all time looking at the numbers and the Grand Slam titles he has won. Federer leads the list with 20 Majors, followed by Rafael Nadal (17) and Novak Djokovic (15). "Who's the best? I think Roger. If you ask Rafa that, I think Rafa would say the same thing," Rasheed said in an interview to Breakfast Sports Radio.
In an interview to Tennis365, Mats Wilander commented on Andy Murray's chronic hip injury. The British player underwent his second surgery over a year earlier this week in order not to feel pain in his everyday life. Wilander felt uncertain about Murray's chances to compete again. “Another comeback for Murray after surgery may not be realistic," the Swede said. "I think the game is passing him by a little bit. He’s not going to be able to come out and play the way he did in the past because these young guys are going to hit him off the court. There could be days when he wins a match or two because of the other guys’ unforced errors, but there will be a lot of days when he’ll feel outplayed because the other guys over power him. I know that feeling. Even players like Novak Djokovic or Roger Federer have experienced this in the last year. There were days when Djokovic felt overpowered by Zverev in London and Khachanov in Paris – they just blew him off the court and he couldn’t compete on these days. If Murray does come back, it’s going to be different unless he changes styles, which has happened with Roger and Rafael Nadal too. They’ve become way more aggressive, which is the natural evolution of a tennis player.””
