He never feared Rafa and Roger but now everybody from the next gen fears him.
it's a sad era for tennis tbh, the new gen are just so weak. Before a slam even started you just knew it would be won by djoko or rafa in the last 2/3 years. The fact that casper made 3/5 finals shows the lvl of the tour (this is not to disrespect him but a decade ago, he'll never have made it), we went from having the likes of del potro, Wawrinka, Murray, Thiem to zverev, tsitsi, casper... The only two that are even remotely competitive are Medvedev (but only on hard courts) and Alcaraz potentially. Wimbledon is basically already decided. No more raonic, Murray, tsonga, berdych, no one can play on grass
@@agl4044 the problem is not that Medvedev and company are not good enough, the problem is that Djokovic and the big 3 since Federer still was on tour, are just too good.
@@michelegrassi4385 they were being challenged and even beaten in some instances when they were at their prime. Now these new players can't even challenge them at the end of their careers. People like del Potro, Wawrinka, Murray, thiem were actually a threat to the big three in grand slams, now there's virtually no one
Ridiculous. The new gen are the strongest in history, and by a wide margin. Ever since both the ATP increased focus on promoting next gen, creation of the next gen end-of-year finals, and players' association led by Novak himself pushing for more prize money share for lower ranked players, young talent has been given a huge push to close the gap faster with the best the game has seen, and results have been obvious: far more newcomers in the top 20. To be able to stay atop a heap that's at the level the big 3 were a few years ago: that's just how great Novak is. He keeps working & improving.
@@michelegrassi4385wrong, agl40 os absolutely right! These gen plays at WTA level, tennis is too poor for like 5y
He never feared anyone.

The biggest difference between let's say Federer against Nadal and Djokovic against Nadal was Djokovic's ability to absorb on his backhand the spin of Nadal's forehand and wide serve on the ad court on break points... Pretty much negated Nadal's greatest assets
Add Djokovic's greater physical conditioning post-2011 and mental strength, and you have the game's GOAT
Nole's game was better suited to Rafa's style than was Fed's against Rafa's, sure enough.
AGASS1 patented and improving TAKING BALL EARLIER no matter how inside the baseline he was.
NO1E just took that kind, add to discipline and inner work.
AGASS1 changed the game
It was his dream as a child, so he knew he needed to put the effort
If you think Novak is a goat who am I to contradict you.
@@annewalden3795 Every Expert and former #1 champion thinks Novak is the GOAT, so you would be the one with wishful thinking
Since 2011, Djokovic is 22-10 against Federer, and 23-12 against Nadal.
Before 2011, when his rivals were at their best, he was 5-13 against Federer and 7-17 against Nadal
Nadal and Federer weren’t as good after those years and Nole was getting beat before
He still has a positive score against both of them,more Gs than both of them,more masters 1000 titles and was the 1# ranked player for a longer time period than both of them.
In every meaningful category novak dominates them at the end of the day.
@@nncdcd8683 he was too young
@@isaiahbright7546yeah and nole wasn’t good before 2011 either. Cry
Nothing but respect for the two. Both among my favourite athletes ever.
It's hard to see someone who's been at number 3 for many years ever truly challenging the top 2, but it's even harder now to imagine that same man ever not being #1. Absolutely insane transition over the winter of 2010 which must have taken so much self belief to really trust that he could bridge that gap
It’s all about gluten free diet! Too bad Federer and Nadal didn’t invent something like it.
Yes , the diet was life changing for Novak . It took him a while to transition tho , he was loosing matches left and right but when he finally got use to it it was all over for everybody else . You can tell that Rafa is more alethic but heavier . But that means he is more prone to injuries because he was abusing the body with all the movement with all that mass .
The records speak for themselves...Both great, BUT the whole picture says Novak is greater..
Facts.
All this without Spain's doctors
Nadal has a commanding lead over Djokovic 11-7 in Grand Slams ..and more wins in finals..
while head to head Novak leads 40-39 ..only by 1 overall....Nadal had novaks number in the most imp Matches that is grand slams... so it says Nadal is clearly better
@@syeedchowdhury2501claydal.
Nole beat Nadal in every Masters 1000 and Grand Slam.
Nole beat Nadal in Roland Garros twice , the only player to do so
What about Nadal? Never beat Nole in the Australian Open, nole got 10 ao titles , Paris , Cincinnati, and one more
Nole could have had 2+ GS only if the cowards had allowed him to play because he didn't use the vaccine lol
@@syeedchowdhury2501Djokovic challenged Nadal several times in RG and clay courts but what about Nadal?
He chickened out from challenging Nole on hard courts because he didn't want to increase the gap between them. He's a one court specialist
The most significant stat in their H2H's :
*On 2 occasions Djokovic has beaten Nadal in 7 consecutive matches (both clay and hardcourts)* This is dominance beyond any doubt
Shhh 🤫 don’t tell the truth, you’ll trigger the angry Rafans 🤣
That just means that on those matches, Nadal was not very good physically, and still, they have basically the same wins/losses against each other
@@gabrielggc Ah, yes Rafa only loses because he was injured. Typical. 🤣
@@Tennis_Expert Rafa hater? Who are you a fan of?
@@gabrielggc Big 3 fan, in their respectful GOAT order:
Novak >> Roger >> Rafael.
Nadal has not beat Djokovic in Hardcourt since 2013, his record at slams seems so much better because Djokovic challenged him at clay so many times since 2013, and Nadal only challenged him at Hardcourt once in AO 2019, that is why Nadal record at slams seems much better.
Rafa avoided Nole and Roger heavily on HC & grass. Remove clay - and Rafa is nothing.
@Tennis_Expert that's why he has 8 majors outside his favourite surface?
You guys are so silly😂
@@chiefnama790 You still missed the point though. How many of those 8 majors did Nadal get from beating Novak? From my memory, I can only think of 2 (USO 10' & 13').
I don’t know man, the dude above said remove clay and “rafa is nothing”. I think @chiefnama790 is just pointing out how hyperbolic that is considering he won 8 non-clay slams. That’s not nothing. Of the 6 he didn’t face Novak, I’m sure he faced Federer at a few as well (can’t look up the stats rn). So I don’t think @chiefnama790 missed the point, I think you might have missed his.
@@chiefnama790 Let me put it this way: Rafa has only 8 non-clay majors. Roger has 9 non-HC majors and Novak has 10 non-HC majors (at the moment).
10>>9>>8 ;-)
As a generous and merciful person, I won't pull-up the W/L ratios (Career and Majors).
I think this ends the debate who's a 1 dimensional player and who's more complete and versatile player.
Djokovic's biggest weapon was his return AT Nadal. How many times he returned the ball at Nadal's feet, forcing him to back up and hit a neutral shot, allowing djokovic to gain control over points and keep Nadal back and scrambling.
Then how Nadal is dominating Novak in France with 11 GS more and Nadal is defeating Novak with 1 GS in the US Open. Novak only dominates in Australia.
@@anton12346 You seem to have completely missed the point of the comment. OP is talking about their H-2-H, you are talking about their seperate GS stats.
@@anton12346 I’d argue nadal only
Dominates on clay. Djokovic won the French twice, beat nadal on clay, leads the head to head, and leads total grand slams.
@@simcosports2584 Novak has 24 and Nadal 22 because Nadal is not playing due to injury and Novak is taking advantage of this but Yesterday Nadal told to the tennis world that he is coming back next year without any injury after surgery. Nadal wants to win another gold medal at the Olympics. Nadal already has 2 gold medals but Novak only has only 1 bronze. Nadal is coming back! It’s in the news. Take care!
@@anton12346 Injury is part of the sport...banning someone from 4 slams(that had high chances of winning) due to politics is actually giving unfair advantage to someone and even that didnt matter...stick a fork in it...its done.Novak won against the field AND politicians and still going strong.. he can easily win at least 3 more before retiring while Nadal is pretty much done.
I’m subscribing because you’re now sharing more Djokovic content.
Rafal Nadal is the real GOAT because
1) No of grand slam- doesn't matter
2) No of week at no 1- doesn't matter
3) No of year end at no 1- doesn't matter
4) winning major titles atleast twice - doesn't matter
5) winning grand slam at each surface at least thrice- don't matter
6) ATP titles - don't matter
7) Australian open - don't matter
8) Wimbledon open- don't matter
9) US open- don't matter
10) Head to Head battle- don't matter
11)Non Calendar grand slam- don't matter
The only things that counts are
1) French Open
2) Olympics Gold
3) Popularity contest
That's why he is the GOAT
😜
Excellent 😂😂😂😂😂
@@corantinevina2852 No matter what, it is Joko is the best in this sport.
He has a cool yacht, but he has this really small ping pong table on it. I was thinking why spend $5.4 million on a yacht just to have a little itty bitty ping pong table on it? That's why he's not the GOAT. 😂😂😂

No fear and noone like No1...Novak
I can’t seem to find the video but I remember a long time ago when Uncle Toni gave an interview and he said that after seeing the first match between Novak and Nadal he told Rafa that they had a problem with Novak. Novak is basically a hybrid of Nadal and Federer. He practically has no weaknesses. Many of the points you’ve highlighted about Djokovic was in his game from the beginning except his service motion. In 2010 Novak had the most DF in the top ten and he was number 3 in the world. Once Djokovic got his service going,his confidence clicked and his physicality just made everything perfect. Man Djokovic is almost unplayable when he’s on. As a die hard Nadal fan. I can safely say that Novak was better than him even at 20/20/20. So my GOAT tier is Novak, Rafa and Roger in that order.
It was also written in Rafa's Book published in 2010 about Uncle Toni's view
This comment is one I found respectfully for TENNIS PLAYERS , why because you are saying that you are Rafa fun but you also accepted facts about Djokovic that he is really really great athlete one of the best in history of tennis….much respect to you and this is why we (Joker funs) do not hate Rafa I always said that I respect him like a tennis player and warrior…
About Federer I personally have nothing I know how good he was BUT funs his own funs make people to hate him because they can not simply accept that some guy just take down their beloved player so they need to spit on Novak on comments and media but it’s not working 😂
Nadal is something else and his father also they respect Novak because this is the sport what they truly love so much respect to you too…well said 👍🏻
Goat 🐐 for a reason.
Four slams but by played 70% of grand slam matches only in French open with claydal 😂
Rafael Nadal exist not Claydal OK respect other players or shut up fool
Its funny how Claydal is never injured around French Open time :D
@@geksii I call him Sandslash
@@geksii literally he missed 3 french opens
I cannot believe
You are hater ok
You are stupid ok
But you are commenting tennis and you don't follow it closely 😂
Thats the thing i cant figure really..
The primary difference is the fact that Nadal was always over dependent on his physicality, while Djokovic worked on efficiency, strategy and technique. Mentally Nadal was also very tough. But once you start loosing to someone consistently, Nadal needed to shift focus on a physical game and work on other aspects as Djokovic did, and use his physicality as a reserve. Probably constant injuries did not give him enough time to work on it.
U do realize Rafa leads there major head to head record. And before the Nole fans try to discredit the 7 RG matches, Rafa beat him at US open twice when they were both in there prime and pushed Nole in his best court to literally the brink in one of the greatest match ever played
Cope more
Wrong. Nadal and Djokovic played 10 (TEN) matches at Roland Garros, 3 at the USO, 3 at Wimbledon and only 2 at the AO. So they played 10 matches on Rafas best surface and only 2 on Djokovics best surface. Makes a LITTLE bit of a difference doesn`t it? Regarding the US Open, they were not both in their prime in 2010. It was Nadals best year and Djokovic was slamless that year. Djokovic before 2011 was a much weaker player and was diagnozed with gluten-allergy in 2010. Since then he has dominated the sport (he is ONE year younger than Nadal). Since 2011 Djokovic leads 2:0 at Wimbledon (Nadal won once in 2007 and his other win on grass was Queens club 2008). Fifteen years ago was the last time Nadal beat Djokovic on grass and 10 years ago was the last time Nadal beat Djokovic on a hard court (or even won a set!). Since Djokovic hit his prime things are way different. Nadal still has a very good H2H simply because he had a big lead before 2011 and it was 16:7. SINCE and including 2011 the score is 13:23 in favor of Djokovic who now leads 30:29. They have played more matches on clay (28) than on hard courts (27) and 5 of their last 6 matches were on clay. What are the odds of that?
@@ivanjoldic826 Yeah, it was 14-4 at one point actually.
@@dushandvr5765 Man's saying to "cope more" yet i'm reading a whole paragraph written by Djokovic fans trying to discredit Nadal's dominant h2h record against Djokovic in Grand Slams Finals. So what if Djokovic was unfortunate enough in facing Nadal on the former's favoured surface? You expect Nadal to just lose so that it's "fair"?
Nadal would fake injuries and withdraw from tournaments (GS included) so that he doesn’t have to face Novak on his fav surface, and he can only face Novak on clay in the recent years.
Good video but you forgot to mention one important detail. Prior to this year, Since 2011, Nadal pulled out of 17 tournaments years due to injury. Only 1 was on Clay. Considering that Nadal hasn't been able to even win a set of Novak on hardcourt in ten years, It's safe to say that not only did Nadal not lose on any tournaments he could have won, but he actually maintained his winning record against Federer and kept himself within distance of Novak by avoiding hardcourts, where almost every player in the top 40 posed more danger to Novak on hardcourt than Nadal did.
There is a very high probability that Nadal wasn't as injured as we were lead to believe, if he only missed out on one clay court due to injury in a 10 year span.
Obviously, if you are injured you want to enter only the tournaments that you have the best chance of winning, and clay courts were Rafa's forte.
Fully agreed, and Nadal wasn't injured so long for no reason besides not weakening his H2H records. It takes a great deal of time to prepare with the Spanish super "doctors" for another clay season that defied all odds. I hope one day the truth will come out, too bad they had all those blood samples of Spanish athletes destroyed so conveniently years ago. Included were top football players, cyclists and......tennisplayers.
Of course he wasn’t, Nadal has been avoiding Djokovic on hardcourts since 2014. After the 2019 AO Final that was when Nadal wanted no piece of Djokovic on a hardcourt ever again.
I totally agree

Wrong title. I think Djokovic feared Nadal for sure, a player who leads on him 11-7 in Grand Slam matches and 5-4 in Grand Slam finals too. He even defeated him 2 times in 3 Us Open finals, the most important HC tournment in the world.
Respect yes…fear never.
Lol the little rat escaped from Djokovic in 2018 uso semis😂😂😂
Phah, not hard to have a H2H lead in slams when like 70% of all your slam matches were played at RG (Nadal’s best surface). Remove RG and it’s 5-3 Djokovic, and actually Djokovic leads 15-13 in finals. Nadal played better in 2011 than 2010, made more finals, had a higher ELO rating but just always fell short to Djokovic who completely transformed since 2010 and became a different beast.
my respect for Rafa is forever lost after AO 2022 and how nonchalant, patronizing and the very disdainful attitude he had towards Djokovic being Detained, and whose career were arbitrarily stopped
Also using every tricks and low blows to win against young opponents, like shapovalov or sonego
Nadal has really shown his true face
what tricks and low blows? can you point me some?
@@theamazingbrokenman follow tennis more closely ok?
CopR8 what a load of rubbish your statement is. Nadal said he felt sorry for Djokovic and everyone has a'choice but there are consequence. What is wrong with that. Talking about tricks. What a joke. You must be talking about the wrong player.
@@theamazingbrokenman No he cant point any because there is none to point out. Nadal has the greatest respect to his young opponents. Great honest guy with no arrogance
@@jennysambrook3528 I can. Many don't know about Nadal's dark side of unsportsmanship. But once you know that you understand that he's not only below Federer but also below Djokovic, by a huge margin.
At the 2022 Australian Open, he took an break that included both a medical evaluation and a toilet visit, something which is against the rules; Nadal did this between the 4th and 5th sets of his QF match against Shapovalov, when he was on the verge of losing from 2 sets to 0 up. In the 3rd set of the final against Medvedev, Nadal slowed down the match to destroy Medvedev's rhythm and let the racists in the crowd take control, a crowd that was super one-sided anyway.
Among his other displays of unsportsmanship:
* Bullying opponents mid-match when momentum is with the opponent. Nadal did it to Fognini, Sonego and Berdych, among other players. Djokovic and Federer never behaved like that.
* There were times when his opponents hit an ace and Nadal lied and pretended he was not ready. 2 notable examples are the 2017 Wimbledon 4th round match against Muller (4th game of the 3rd set) and the 2019 US Open final against Medvedev (5th game of the 5th set).
* Sore loserness. Djokovic has always been humble in defeat, better than any other player of his era. Federer has improved in this category since 2012. When Nadal lost a match he believed he should have won (which happens most of the time) he gives a sore face to the opponent when they shake hands, even against Djokovic and Murray.
* Nadal has avoided Djokovic and Federer outside of clay since 2018-2019, once he figured out that he can't beat them on fast surfaces anymore. 4 notable cases are the 2018 Australian Open quarterfinal (retired mid-match against Čilić before the first changeover of the 5th set and avoided Federer in the final), the 2019 Indian Wells masters semifinal (didn't lose a set prior to this match but still gave a walkover to Federer and avoided him), the 2019 Paris indoors masters semifinal (Nadal never won the Paris indoors masters but instead of giving himself a chance he gave a walkover to Shapovalov and avoided Djokovic in the final) and the 2022 Wimbledon semifinal (Nadal was unbeatable in Grand Slam tournaments in 2022 up to this point but instead of giving himself a chance for the Calendar Grand Slam he gave a walkover to Kyrgios and avoided Djokovic in the final).
Nadal is far from being the perfect sportsman the media wants you to believe he is.
Just to be clear around 20 out of those 29 matches, that Nadal ever won against Novak all came on clay court surfaces, on which Nadal is considered to not just be the greatest of all times, but to such an extent, that some people proclaim him as "clay court God"! If you look at Nadal's resume on that particular surface - you can see why! So no - Nadal having won 20 matches on clay against Djokovic is NOT equal to Djokovic having won 20 on hard courts! As anyone and they will tell you how much harder it is to beat Nadal on clay, than Djokovic on hard courts (even if it's slow hard...)...it's just not one and the same! Not to mention how much their h2h meetings at grand slams in particularly are skewed toawrds RG, with 10 of like 18 meetings happening on that particular grand slam tournament! Given how many times they played at RG and put it in the context of how great Nadal is at RG it's not hard to see how unfair this advantage is to Djokovic!
This in general taints all the H2H matches for Nadal. He is so much better on clay than other surfaces he faces the top players that are more allround mostly on clay.
On the other hand you can argue that its silly that only 25% of slams is clay while like 40% of the tour is clay and that Wimbledon is still grass despite there only being like a 5 week grass season.
In all fairness the tour would be 50/50 clay and hardcore really.
Dont forget that Nadal has a winning record against Nole at the US open.
Clearly you are a biased fan. First off Djokovic only leads 30-29. Secondly, both Nadal and Djokovic equally dominated on their respective surfaces. Additionally, they played nearly the same number of clay and hard matches. Last, Djokovic may not have feared Nadal but he respects him for sure and fully recognized him as his goat rival and competitor
@@marcusjenkins5371 Lies! Novak never dominated on hard courts the same way Nadal dominated on clay! This is false! Nadal is much greater on clay, than Novak is on hard courts!...
@@MishaWilson A slower HC surface that’s completely different material than AO!
Even so, last time Rafa beat Nole on HC was 10 years ago, on grass 15 years ago.
Last time Nole beat Rafa on clay was in 2021 - it’s really no so hard thing to grasp 😉
You are a poor Novak fanatic. I ama Rafa fan and still consider Novak the GOAT but respect both of them.
Honestly Novak is not the best tennis player. Novak only dominates in Australia but he is behind Federer in US Open by 2 Grand Slams, Nole is also behind Federer in Wimbledon and worse he is 11 Grand Slams behind Nadal in Roland Garros which is an impossibility for Novak. Federer even retired beats Novak in US Open and Wimbledon. Honestly Novak is not even close to being the GOAT.
Djokovic never feared Rafa? Perhaps. But I'm sure Djokovic would rather play against any other player than have Rafa at the opposite side of the net. If that is not fear, then it's probably respect or a recognition of Rafa's greatness not only in terms of tennis skills but also in his tenacity and never say die attitude on court.
Nole never feared anyone because he was already better than the other 2, even before he surpassed the grand slam records. Federer and Nadal won grand slams only because they started their career when weak players were in their draws or when Nole was injured. They never stood a chance against the GOAT.
Djokovic at his prime between between 2012-2014 won only one grand slam a year. Djokovic is winning now because of the weak competition.
Both Nadal & Fed played many more 500's & 250's, that's why their stats look better.
@@suzannal.8567 Yeah bcoz Grand Slams are for warriors like Nole and not for weak players like Fed and Nadal....

Djokovic owns Weakdal.
Lol he is dominated by Nadal 11-7 in the most important torunaments (GS)
@@nncdcd8683 Are we counting all the times Claydal "withdraws due to injury" in slams where he would have had to face Djokovic in the final? Guess not. Oh well, 2021 and 2015 show that at least one of the two isn't _afraid_ to meet the other on _their_ favorite (read: only) surface :)))
What a clickbait title. No one is afraid of anyone. It is just a game.
Avoiding Novak at hardcourts is evidence that he is afraid of him...Ever since 2015 that started happening...
One of them has the privilege of not having a chronic foot disformity and only had to change his diet. The other on top of already being disadvantaged physically was plagued with injuries. I admit Novak developed over the years into a near perfect player but i wouldn't say nadal wouldn't have been able to reach a similar level of dominance and proficiency, as his body never allowed him to be as physically dominant into such a late age as novak is soing right now. We saw last year that if nadal hadn't gotten injured in wimbledon he would have been a huge contender for the title and personally think he would have brought it to Djokovic. But as always injuries have to stop him when he is at his best.
injuries are a consequence of his game style not just something that happened randomly. Nole can perform at his peak even at 36 years old because he's able to maintain his Energy and use It when he needs to
Nadal got a surgery for his foot where he had an operation done on his nerves to avoid feeling pain. But keep using the same excuse every single time.
Nadal fans never had any factual based argument anyways, this just adds on to it even more.
@@John-yt8claccording to drugal fans nadal is always injured.. Even if he wins 🤣🤣🤣
@@John-yt8cl Why is that an excuse exactly? He stopped feeling pain after that surgery once and for all, or what? Last time I checked, he'll need another six months to recover after another surgery. But yeah, why I'm not surprised. Show me a Djokovic fan who thinks that having a chronic foot disease since childhood and struggling with it during whole career, having to skip (or withdraw from) multiple tournaments, is something significant.
You this comment only adds to Novak’s greatness, the fact that he’s able to still dominate the sport at 36 years of age, when the other two were going through injuries and well past their peaks. Tennis isn’t just racquet skills it’s also mental physical fitness, something that Novak has much more than roger or Nadal

There are several reasons, one of which is that he changed his diet and after that he was another Novak with much more physical fitness, before that he had physical problems, he got tired quickly if he played for a longer time at a faster pace, and of course his backhand, which was perhaps the best ever , he is the only player who could break Nadal's forehand with his backhand, no one could do that except Novak, of course his complete game and unprecedented mental strength, he is strong everywhere, the biggest flaw in his game is his smash shot 😀
He doesn’t need the smash, you hardly hit 2-3 smashes during a full match.
on clay i still give the edge to Rafa.but all others Rafa cannot beat him
@@markcrisp07rafa can beat him in Rogers cup and US Open
This video is awful.
Basically it just states Novak became a better and more fit player later on, has nothing to do with Nadal.
Worst of all there it tries to argue that Djokoviv has a better serve because he made ~1500 more points on second serve than Nadal but Nadal hasv the higher second serve win rate... djokoviv just plays more second serves due to a combination of playing more games per match on average than Nadal and having a lower first serve percentage.. Nadal is better on serve actually, Djokovic has the better return game.
Lots of respect for both these legends !
Djokovic is the greatest all around player ever. But nobody comes near Rafa's Goat claim on clay.
yeah we know. nadal is king of clay. Novak is king of tennis. federer is the prince of tennis, or maybe an arch-duke
Nole is such an incredible model of perseverance and belief. An inspiration for humanity
Honestly Novak is not the best tennis player. Novak only dominates in Australia but he is behind Federer in US Open by 2 Grand Slams, Nole is also behind Federer in Wimbledon and worse he is 11 Grand Slams behind Nadal in Roland Garros which is an impossibility for Novak. Federer even retired beats Novak in US Open and Wimbledon. Honestly Novak is not even close to being the GOAT.
@@anton12346 That may be why Novak has a winning record (H2H) against both Federer and Nadal. Your comment might also explain why Novak beat Federer in EVERY Wimbledon final they met. He is also the player who has beaten most times Nadal on clay. Take time to watch those finals against Federer, on every surface.. or else, you might just want to close your eyes on those concrete results and keep a dream illusion about your ''retired Federer beating Djokovic''
@@sebdoyon9707 Nadal has 14 Grand Slams at Roland Garros and Novak has ONLY 3 Roland Garros. That's why the French made a statue to Nadal in France. Reaching Nadal's record in France is impossible for Nole.
Fereder even retired beats Nole in Wimbledon and US Open with 3 more GS than Nole. Please don't be naive and go to Google to see that I am writing you the truth. Nole is far from being the greatest. The stats don't lie!!! Go to Google so you know the truth!!!!!
The h2h is very skewed tho, how they've managed to play an even number of matches on clay vs every other surface is beyond me when only 33% of the tournaments are played on clay.
very well said and explanie 👏👏👏👏

Nobody is invincible in this World . Alcaraz will beat him in Wimbledon if he does not cramp up again, Djokovic had said for me NADAL is the best so their should not be any debate about it.

1:40 Look at the percentage... And you call Rafa serve inferior? This is stupid.
Nadal controversially withdrew from 2016's French Open after destroying Bagnis (6-3, 6-0, 6-3). Just before the round that, for the first and last time in FO story, required mandatory independent PED testing. Since whole Nadal's dominance on clay is based on his physical ability to overrun his opponents, Djokovic's wins on clay should be valued a lot more than on every other surface. It can be compared to Fedor Emelianenko, who fought much bigger and undoubtedly juiced opponents (as well as complete trash cans, but that's another story), finding keys to neutralise pure physical strenght and outsmarting them in general. Hope Novak will be able to find keys to another spanish "natural" physical specimen, who seems to repeat his elder compatriots path, but much earlier in his career.
@Tennis Plus , 4:45 Djokovic has won 8 titles after saving match points, correct. What do you mean in a total 16 times in his career? And when were these three losses you mention afterwards? It doesn't make sense
Nadal is not better than Federer. Only on clay.
Since 2005 Nadal has a chronic Injury that destroys his ankle. This is an Argument that the Djokovic Fans dont want to hear but 2011,2012,2014 -2016 and 2021 Nadal had an unfair disadvantage against Novak and because of it, Nadal had won at least 50% of the matches which he lost against Novak
And even with that unfair disadvantage Nadal still leads on him in GS matches 11-7 and Gs finals 5-4, even if two GS are played on HC.

I'm glad you're finally giving the GOAT more attention.
Nadal got injured in 2014.
Till that point their rivalry was solidly in favour of Nadal. Djokovic dominated Rafa in 2011 but Rafa dominated him overall up until 2014.
It's after Rafa's decline and bunch of injuries that Novak started evening out the head to head.
The 🐐came for him and took his legs out in 2015RGQF.
Nadal won 8 GS since 2014...So stop the cap...Injuries had 0 to do with H2h cos as he said in the video They hardly met on hard compered to clay after 2013(12-7 in favour of Clay)Up until 2014 Nadal led 22-17 which is not by much considering Novak was not as good and there is a big difference between 21 year old and 20 year old player...By your logic Nadal declined whe he was 27 years old which is unusual and why would early years(from 19-21) be counted more then from 27-30...
The only reason for this H2H being balanced is because they mostly play on clay. Why so? Because Nadal can not dominate the rest of the field on HC and Grass.
@@rolocompressor46 Yeah...There is the reason Djokovic has the most QF in RG history even more then Nadal who won it 14 times...Nobody is as consistant as Djokovic...

Novak is coming for that grass record. hopefully you will gracefully change your opinion then.
Djokovic is the only one who is top 3 all time on all 3 surfaces. Federer isn’t in the top 5 on clay and Nadal isn’t in the top 5 on either hard or grass.

Good, informative vid, but the screenshot is kind of just more fuel for ignorant haters: obviously Novak never said something so arrogant as that, he was always respectful and courteous toward his rivals.
Novak attacks Nadal’s forehand NO ONE ELSE DOES THIS. While this tactic may not win the points, it stops Nadal from moving to the backhand court to use his powerful forehand
let me give you an analogy. Before that "A peak nadal is better than peak Djoko and peak Fed in terms of tennis". However, this doesn't translate to being the GOAT. Why? You probably went to school and in my life the worst students made the most money while the best students are doing ok or slaving away in a job. Being best in school doesn't translate to being the most successful. Similarly, Fed has a higher loss % against both Nadal and Djoko but he is more successful than both. Define success? Success is defined by number of dollars/Euro that you have earned. So Fed is the most successful among bug 3. Nadal is the best tennis player of all time technically and strategically. But Djoko is the GOAT on statistics. I know Djoko fans will have hard time digesting it. But being David Nalbandian is also pointless. No money, no fame, no statistics
Novak>Roger>Nadal
A ll down to the prize money. He reminds me of that infamous cyclist who was on performance drugs.
Nadal's injuries come from his style of play.
It was dream for Novak to play Against Nadal and Federer let alone beat them. From then to now Novak has come a long way...Kudos. As I love to say rafa better although stats will not support me😢
Where do these hallucinations come from? Novak is a year younger than Rafa and met him for the first time in 2006. In their third meeting that was at 2007 Miami , Novak beat Rafa in two sets and won his first Masters title - Miami, which Nadal has never won until now
If nadal can reach finals with injury then losing to Novak injury is NOT an excuse… Novak has played 20 years with allergies and asthma and he scored EVERY possible record more times then Nadal… Even young Nadal didn’t score Golden masters in his best years as he is 1 turf specialist. Novak has 2 gold masters, he is all round best player aka GOAT
He is under Nadal when it counts most, in GS matches and finals
Novak wasn’t said that
I do not understand why there is even a discussion about who the greatest tennis player of all times is, when Nadal is not no.1 in any main tennis category. My favorite " theory" is that No23VAK benefited from the " weak era", and that he played a bunch of " nobodies" lately in GS finals.My question is, how come Nadal could not benefit from the " weak era " at the same time like No23VAK ( H2H 40-11 vs. the current top 10 players,w/ l (+29).Rafa' s H2H vs. the current top 10 is 25 - 8.,w/l (+17).Nadal is the GOAT, his fans would like you to believe, bc according to them, he beat " prime" Federer. Of course, what they do not say is that Rafa lost to Roger in 2017 AO final, and Roger lost to Djokovic in 2014 Wimbledon, when he was 3 yrs.younger. The same goes for Federer fans they do not brag that Agassi was 35 and had bad back when he lost to Roger in USO final, or that Cilic had blisters in Wimbledon final, and played like he would rather be somewhere else.
Honestly Novak is not the best tennis player. Novak only dominates in Australia but he is behind Federer in US Open by 2 Grand Slams, Nole is also behind Federer in Wimbledon and worse he is 11 Grand Slams behind Nadal in Roland Garros which is an impossibility for Novak. Federer even retired beats Novak in US Open and Wimbledon. Honestly Novak is not even close to being the GOAT.
@anton12346 You forgot to mention where is Federer compared to Djokovic in RG, and where is Nadal compared to Djokovic in Wimbledon. But let' s do this: I say Djokovic won more GS titles than Federer on 2/3 GS surfaces ( hard courts and clay), and he won more GS titles than Nadal on grass and hard courts.Please remind me to compare notes with you in less than 10 days, when ( not if) Djokovic wins Wimbledon #8.Federer, by the way, never won a single title in Monte Carlo/ Rome, do you have ANY IDEA how many titles No23VAK won there?Every Federer fan is crying and complaining that Federer was " NOT IN HIS PRIME" (as if that' s No23VAK' s problem !) in 2011 and in 2014 ( although he lost to Djokovic in SF and finals), but, of course, there were no complaints when Federer jumped on Djokovic while he was a teenager ( hardly in his prime), when Federer opened up 7-2 H2H lead.Can you explain why Federer was " TOO OLD" in 2014 and 2015 Wimbledon finals, but still managed to win two GS titles in 2017( while Djokovic was injured with bad elbow), and beat Nadal in AO final? Don' t you think it is a little bit strange that Roger had 16 GS titles in 2010 (15 more than Djokovic), and that he won only 4 more GS titles in the following decade, while Djokovic won between 2011 - 2016 ELEVEN(11) GS titles? Do you know that Federer had only 4 seasons where he won more matches than he lost to Djokovic, while Djokovic had 9 (NINE) SEASONS when he won more H2H matches vs. Roger?Roger beat Djokovic ONE TIME (2014 Dubai), after No23VAK won the first set, Djokovic beat Federer SEVEN (7X) TIMES after Roger won the first set.
@@djordjelezajic8435 I am just showing the REAL reasons why Novak is not the best tennis player.
How is Novak going to be the best tennis player when out of the 4 Grand Sland he only dominates in 1 and is losing in the other 3 ? This is very simple to understand…
@anton12346 The only thing easy to understand, honestly, is that you set up a filter ( requirement ( that Roger benefits from, and then simultaneously compare Djokovic to Federer AND Nadal at the same time ( honestly).When Roger won GS title no.15, in 2009, and surpassed Sampras, Roger had six (6) Wimbledon titles ( Sampras had 7), Roger had 5 USO titles ( like Jimmy Connors and Pete Sampras), he had 3 AO titles ( Andre Agassi had 4).and Roger had one RG title.So - according to your theory, obviously, Roger was not really " leading" in any GS tournament, unless you consider the three way tie when it comes to 5 USO titles, but EVERYBODY CALLED ROGER THE GOAT- even Tio Toni, Rafa' s favorite uncle. I did not invent the rule that the player with the most GS titles is the GIAT, but now that No23 VAK has more than made up the -15 GS title deficit behind Federer since 2010, the rules are being changed daiky.Nobody expects FEDAL fans to like, support or respect Djokovic as the greatest, you keep worshiping these two, while Djokovic continues to push forward.In the end, the only hope for your guy(s) to look good in comparison with THE REAL GOAT is an attempt to try to match and compare No23VAK' s weakness to Roger and Rafa ' s strength.
@@djordjelezajic8435 Please read my last comment! Thank you 🙏
Only Father Time can stop Novak Djokovic...I think...🤣
A good video, but you have been very selective with facts, even repeating the best ones several times. Basically, they (and Roger) are amazing players but Novak turned pro 2 years later than Rafa, so even if they had the same playing style he would be in better shape. Choosing stretching over brute force and willpower, Novak has been much kinder to his body. When Roger was in his prime, Rafa only had one way to beat him yet still maintained Roger was the better player and almost idolized him. Novak watched these two and their huge popularity and quietly decided he would beat them both, in all possible statistics. The last time Rafa and Novak played, Rafa only lost one set, 2022. One detail you omitted was Novak's dislike of wind and I mention this because it is often a factor on clay. In 2018 Novak completed a 10-8 final set win over Rafa at Wimbledon on a very sunny day with the roof closed...I did wonder if the result would have changed with an open roof. With 23 grand slams, Novak can only increase his claim as the greatest ever; to eclipse Roger and Rafa during the most competitive period in tennis is unparalleled.
He is goat no matter who is agains him he beat nadal on clay two times he is only one player to do that twice
Novak is clearly the better And the greatest of all time as he is a better player on two surfaces hard courts and grass courts , and also Infront head to head and number of GS

Its so different to compare. For me they will always remain equally amazing GOSTs
Novaks mentality can come from the fact to enter the stage as the 3rd "evil" guy. If Fed maybe wouldn't have been so dominant in the beginning he might have developed a stronger work ethic like djocovich. Actually, just if I look at Wimbi 19 Fed being 5 years older and having the pressure to please the world by winning and by a razor thin margin almost did shows me how almost superior he can play. Nadal's injuries again is another topic. Bottom line: the big 3 always remain as the headline for me
make another video! Another beating Nadal by Djokovic at Olympic 2024!!! Nadal was avoiding Djokovic all his career on hard courts, he avoid Fed as well!!!
