Roddick: "Who is the GOAT between Federer, Nadal and Djokovic?...

The Big 3 were arguably the best players of their era alongside Andy Murray. Roger Federer has not won a Slam since January 2018, but still holds the record of 20 majors conquered, while Rafael Nadal took only one length away thanks to the victories at the Roland Garros and the US Open last year.

Before the suspension for the Coronavirus emergency, Novak Djokovic won his 17th Slam by recovering Dominic Thiem in the Australian Open final. For his 17th Grand Slam win he received 2.5 Million Euro as prize money. The World number 1 won the title at Dubai Tennis Championships fifth time, defeating Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final.

In a recent interview, former World number 1 Andy Roddick said it is too premature to decide the ongoing 'Greatest of all time' debate. "There seems to be this need to discuss the greatest of all time on the men's side and frankly at this point, I think it’s kind of dumb," he said on Tennis Channel. “It’s like handing out Oscars before you watch the ending of a movie. It just doesn't make much sense and if you say one person, the other two people feel disrespected.

It is just too early and before it all plays out someone will say: 'who do you think will finish with the all-time lead?' And I’m either guessing or obviously I'm like a medical professional and can predict injuries from here on out. I just think we’re lucky to still have Novak, Roger and Rafa still in the game. Hopefully, Murray gets back into it. It is premature and I know everyone likes to go to this conversation non-stop but I just think it is too early. And there is too much wasted breath on it at this point."
