Most people rank tennis players by Grand Slam titles so If Novak tops Roger's record he will be considered the greatest tennis player of all time by the majority. 

12 of Nadal's 18 titles are on clay, people like to bring this up as some type of detriment to his legacy but I still think he shined enough on hard courts and grass to have a solid argument for the GOAT argument.

@Royse777 - Don't you worry mate, I'm sure you will recover that 0.05BTC you have lost in tennis. 

I am not gambling these days (from last a week) and decided not to gamble anymore. But in my gambling career I never chased. I know if I go for chasing then I will lose more. I have seen a lot of people around me losing their hard earning money.

Taking about tennis, I missed this Wimbledon to see because of this World Cup cricket. Looking forward to the next major tournament.

What do you guys think about Federer, he already have 20 GS. Do you think he will manage to get one more or few?

He is still one of the best in the game but I don't think he will win another match against Djokovic. Djokovic is firmly inside his head as recent head to head suggests. Therefore, I am seeing Federer as probable semi-finalist in grand slams but not a winner. He is not getting any younger. Hopefully I am wrong and we will see him lift another grand slam.

Don't get me wrong he has a great legacy in this sport however he just hasn't won enough Grand Slams on other surfaces. Yes its okay that he has made the finals many times on other surfaces but he wasn't good enough to win them matches and people don't remember the person coming second as it goes down as the person who won. Yes I agree he has played well enough on hard courts considering that is one surface he's body has trouble with but in recent times he has adapted and played well.

Yes Federer is one of the all time greats, no doubt about that. I think he can still win but not at the expense of Djokovic as he is just on fire lately specially in grass court.

But as fans we wanted to see Federer win some before he finally retires and then Djokovic taken over from him in terms of the number of Grand slam wins.

Federer will not be winning any more grand slams due to his age, and the stiff competition he gets in the form of Djokovic and others. I felt he should have retired when he was winning, and that could have kept his legacy intact. Djokovic may break Federer record but it’s a long way for him to get fans respect, I’m referring to the incident where he was booed by fans in the final set.

I am a fan of Federer, Djokovic and Nadal's tennis. But for Federer since he is not getting any younger I always wanted him to get as many titles as he can so that for Djokovic or possibly Nadal, it become very harder.

By the way, lately I am also believing that this "Djokovic in head" thing is really in Federer's mind. May be this was the reason for him to lose the Wimbledon final.

Not sure why Djokovic was booed like he was in the final but sometimes this can make players even more determined to win as I remember when Victoria Azarenka was receiving the same treatment in the Australian final, I believe it was the 2013 final and she got up and won. She was even brought to tears after the match so I think the crowd does sometimes need to show some respect even if they don't support the other player.

[MakeMoneyBtc]

For those that are ready to place some bets on today matches I have two suggestions for you. Begu/Olaru and John Isner both ML. Begu/Olaru both romanians, playing at home soil and they've won this tournament back in 2017. Exactly the same thing about Isner, playing on home soil, has won the tournament back in 2017.

Djokovic had a very difficult life, he still remembers the 1999 bombing of Serbia and he has already had many difficult moments in his career.
If they are all against him then he is even more determined to win and then he is actually stronger and nobody can beat him.
He is a great champion and I hope he will once receive a deserved respect.

Every great comes from the ashes. I have not seen many people to get success from a luxurious life. Billionaires, great sports personals - in all section you will see they come from hard fight.

I never knew about Djokovic's early life but if that is true then he earned the place where he is now. Much respect.

That is true my friend, it just gives him more determination to keep fighting on and win when the crowd is against him. This is another reason why I rank him second as the greatest player of all time as he has always had to play the fan favourites in most of he's Grand Slam matches when the crowd is never really on he's side. Djokovic is one player that has mental strength to over come this and get up and win while most other players would give in. Again I still don't understand why he is booed as he hasn't done anything wrong from what I have seen when he plays, yes sometimes he gets upset but which player/s don't.

Fans love Nadal and Federer and they know these two great players will not play long, especially Federer, so it's natural to give them support now.
When they stop playing, I really hope that Djokovic will get deserved support.

If we compare them then for some statistic that can be found on net Djokovic won more grand slams when competing with Federer and Nadal. Federer won most of them before Nadal and Djokovic were top players. How I may say that Australian open is Djokovic to take, Roland Garros for Nadal, Wimbledon was Federers and US open can take all 3 of them.

I watch different sports and managed to make sure that in most cases not young and promising win, but old and professional with great experience.  This applies not only to martial arts, but also to tennis.
