- 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
Novak Djokovic è il GOAT 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸💪🏻
This year he was pass Nadal. But why don't people love Novak as much as Roger and Nadal.
@@jonfreeman9682 are you genuinely asking that? Just asking. Because you should think about what the implications are when asking such a question.
If you want an answer, perhaps you should think first about the meaning of the word "great", and it's proper application, and how it is distinct from "best". Because perhaps the answer you seek lies in being able to understand the proper application of the word "great".
No one doubts his athletism.
He will never have the class that is Rafa though.
He has an obsession that could be perceived as desperation for greatness, at all costs, even broaching suspect actions.
Just my opinion.
@@JiraiyaSama86 Well, GREAT also meant better than his opponents right?
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.
I'm sure he wants to win 2024 gold medal as well
@@user-mf5ue6rc5n yes
I whould only add, by long margin he will have all the records.
@@user-mf5ue6rc5n If Novak wins that OG gold medal next year in 2024, discussion of GOAT crumbles forever.
+ pure blood and treat3d like a 2nd class citizen for it. Used to hate him, then respected him, then liked him, then loved him, now favorite tennis player ever, favourite current athlete. Favorite player of all time if he gets to 24 (25?) majors to have most singles in mens & women’s game up against the next 2 mens players ever for 90%+ of his career. US Open doesn’t let him in, that’d be an absolute disgrace.
Djokovic shots work, unlike the ones he doesn’t want, like me.
These kinds of questions should not be asked again. No ifs and buts, NOVAK is the GOAT!
@@nt9854 what do u mean he is not even close to the greatest? he is the greatest ever played Tennis!
@@nt9854 clown
@@nt9854 He is the greatest & he became the greatest with media, establishment & crowds toxicity towards him. Nadal & Federer were wrapped in cotton wool, protected species who would have crumbled under the pressure Novak endured!
@@nt9854 No they are not better!
Come back to me when Fedal get to 375 WEEKS as No 1! You're welcome @NT 😜
@@nt9854 Since 2011., when Djokovic's era began, Djokovic has won more and did more than 8 Rogers and has beaten him almost three times more than he has beaten him 😂🤣. That s about arguments 😂
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.
I have to admit it's al true💪💯🔥
Not to mention he had to go against the tide when he stood his ground against the jabs that he was willing to walk away from it all if he was banned forever from playing because he is jab free.
💯%...Very well explained 👍
Who is Roger if you talk about Rafa? Rafa is Roger Federer and other is Rafael Nadal
Only sorta weakness is his overhead smash game, that aside, impenetrable
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.
Exactly right
Why do you think he’s not putting his health first? Because he didn’t get vaccinated? His health is undoubtedly on the first place when he decided to do not do that. People will never understand (or respect) another people choice when it’s against their own choices or beliefs.
👍👍👍
@@Clemilson.Correia What are you talking about? I clearly said he put his health first when he stood his ground despite the pressure (implying the pressure to take the jabs). Please reread your first sentence. I am jab free like Novak and that is why I was so glad he stood his ground during the time when the jab free were discriminated against and still are in many parts of the world.
👏👏👏👏👏😃
To stand his ground and determine what goes into his body, makes him a man and a sportsman deserving respect and the highest accolades.
He didn’t bend the knee and that makes the tyrants in power angry, no different than the Kings of old.
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
Yes there is...whoever ends up with the most slams will ultimately be considered the best. Beyond that, its by surface. Nadal is the best ever on Clay, Djok best ever on hard court, Federer the best ever on grass
@DONKEY
Grand Slams - tie Djokovic/Nadal
Atp Finals - tie Djokovic/Federer
Masters 1000 - Djokovic
World Number 1 - Djokovic
H2h - Djokovic
Playing for country (Davis Cup/Olympics) - Nadal
Number of titles - Federer
Number of Big titles combined - Djokovic
So it's obvious that Djokovic is the best of the three in major stats
Also it's debatable about Grass
Federer is only 8-7 ahead in Wimbledon titles and 1-3 down in H2H
Rafa is the goat of clay for sure though
@@Gornorudnik Its ultimately all about the grand slams....these players will tell you that.
@@donkey3187 ur name suits u well 🤣😂
@@profesorz642 oh, are donkeys always right? lol
Everyone knows it,the real question is "is everyone mature enough to accept it"
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.
In 4 weeks time he will equal Steffi Graf record and then be ahead of her a week after that and then from there he will be world no 1 for more than 400 weeks, say 450 weeks.
Another record will be that he will equal Margaret Court record of 24 slams then he will be ahead of her.
He is just that great.
It's a full 7 years dude, not 6 and a half!…

@@nt9854 in a row or not doesn't matter, but still, if it did happen in a row for this long, maybe you should wonder why it lasted 237 weeks in a row, maybe cuz Federer's era wasn't that strong and not only because Fed was "so dominating" hum

They said the same about Sampras' 14 Slam record before Fedal came. Records will always be broken.
I am the core Djokovic fan, but to be honest he has just one. Overhead smash
@@shivampandey5712 Not the only one...
@@shivampandey5712 Yep, lol is ridiculous but I bet if someone really wants to beat him all he has to do is lob him the whole match xD

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!⚘🌎
"He is an active inspiration to the people" - That right there is perhaps the greatest difference maker. His principled stand and comeback to win AO again proved beyond doubt Novak's unmatched mental strength - he has shown that he's an inspiration for so much more than Tennis.

Federer lo tiene de hijo.
Yes, he is and has truly earned it the hard way at times. Which makes being greatest all the better.
Look at his sliding backhand on all 3 pads with a diagonal after.., he floats like no one before and after
Yes he is the GOAT 🐐🐐
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!
Can t wait for that one,he s going to do it..
He's considered to be a right winger and that's probably why media won't celebrate him. Politics is everywhere! 😭
@@manjitkmohan He's not a right-winger, he's apolitical, and he's Serbian. He has nothing to do with American politics or American mentality.
Please.....don't compare Djokovic with Ali...pleaaaase!
I believe where he is from plays a big role for that. If he was American or from the Western part of Europe the media would have hyped him so hard.
Absolutely the GOAT!
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.
yes he is indeed he is the greatest of all time
Not on clay hes not...Nadal is the greatest by far...infinitely better on clay than Djok. Fed still has one more Wimbledon than Djok, so Fed is best on grass to date. Djok is best on hard courts. Overall, Djok and Nadal are tied for number of grandslam titles.
He far from the greatest on clay....that would be Nadal.
is that even a question? The GOAT not only for his tennis but for his convictions!!!
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.
Absolutely, Unequivocally Nole is the GOAT; he will be just adding to the legacy. More GS titles, more weeks as the ATP World #1, perhaps become the all time Wimbledon Men's singles champion, the all time ATP World Finals champion. I am beyond happy he seems to be hungry and motivated to play at least a few more years. Go Nole!
Nole's 22 Grand Slams > Rafa's 22* Grand Slams - the asterisk 2022 AO "Champion"
@@mambi74 I agree completely. 👍
Simply the best tennistically and humanitarianly
not only GOAT but also one of the greatest athlete ever...the numbers speak speak for themselfs..everything else bla bla bla..thank you for honest and great video

This debate was finish. As a Federer fan, Djokovic is GOAT...
As someone nicely said, he is slowly becoming The Shepherd.
Goat debate is unfortunately over, guys...
Edit : We have the stamp now.
We 💖 you, Djokovic !!! Respect from Brasil !!! 💚💛🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
NOVAK JESTE NAJBOLJI !!! BROJ JEDAN U TENISU NEMA NIKO KO MOŽE DA MU STANE NA CRTU. VOLIMO TE NOLE 💕💕💕
The answer is Yes. And haters can only cry about that fact.
The next French Open Title means, he is the first and only player who won all Grand Slams three times. Go Novak. 🥰
U are crazy!
But I love the idea!
I will repeat that again and again!
Such innovation!
Let's not jump ahead! Throughout his entire career Novak won French Open only twice out of like 18 attempts! He needs lots of luck regarding draw, weather and other outside factors to help me tpthrough the title! And if Nadal is healthy again by the time RG takes place - it is a sudden spike in difficulty as well! Not to mention the possibility of playing him during day, which suits Nadal better than Novak...too many variables to predict what'll happen this year at French Open!
Besides if we are talking about both genders and not just men, then there are 3 players, who also achieved 3 career slams or more - Margaret Court, Steffi Graf and Serena Williams, while Steffi has 4 career slams! So technically 3rd career slam will only make Novak 4th person ever with that distinction!...
cant wait for that, and winning it against Nadal would be a nail to the coffin. Go Novak! Go NovakNation!
@@Summon256 Jeeeesus what an absurd 🙈
Put Federer in this moment, compete wta and he win all the 4 grand slam in one season
Got into to tennis because I’m British & Murray was a best we’ve had, stayed for Federer, kept watching for Nadal, but now, it’s all about Djokovic. He’s gone from 4th out of 4, to 1st. Play any of the other 3, since the Shots, I’ve switched from barely just Nadal, to Djokovic.
Being a great player is great, but having principles and sticking by them under the pressure he was under is the mark of the man & gave us all the commitment, drive & determination to not take an experimental drug with unknowable consequences. To be proven correct is just, well, it was obvious. To me, & Novak too. Probably to Nadal et al, but they crumbled to the pressure instead of forming an unbeatable united front, but Djokovic still stuck to his principles, even when not just the federations were pressuring him, but fellow players too.
Yeah, Nadal, you took a risk with your body, legitimising it so regular people had more pressure to take it as ‘a top tennis player has’. I hope you don’t have any longer term affects, but I don’t even have to worry about Djokovic. 100% he’s not. He need not worry. You do. You do!
Walking the Walk and putting his money where his mouth is. Staying true to his principles/dreams and apologising to no-one for it. Coming back and winning it all after being banned and regaining #1 after being robbed of thousands of points is just the stuff movies are made of... A pureblood champion like no other :)
Without any doubt,he is the tennis GOAT,that s not even a debate..Debate is ,,is he the greatest athlete of all times..
Djokovic has also 22 GS, and he will continue...On clay Nadal is the best, and I beleive nobody breaks his record, but all together, the statistics doesnt lie. Djokovic ist the best of all time, End of story
Ye..14 GS.. I will give him that..
Evan Djoker told that he put his life in Rafa's hands on the clay 👏
But,remember..Nole was crushed him several times on that surface ✔
Literally ,he had crushed Nadal 20 times ..Prime Nadal ..Who was strong and fast as a machine!
Džoker je čudo ✊🇷🇸💖
@@nikolajaksic4700 Nole crushed Rafa on clay in 2015 and 2016 when Rafa was in his worst form.. Similarly Rafa has crushed Nole on HCs in the last 2000s. He was unlucky not to face nole on HC in 2017 and early 2018 when nole's form was bad.
Overall based on records, Novak is better than Rafa on Hard and Grass and Rafa is better on Clay..
But to say that only Nole can crush Rafa on Clay and Rafa cannot crush Nole on hard court is wrong.

This deserves more views🔥💯
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
Novak was #3 in 2007. and won Montreal and Miami that year if my memory serves me right

GOATOVIĆ
God of Tennis 🎾
He's the guy who broke up the bromance of Roger and Rafa. He's the guy that took King Roger's crown. He's the guy that no one naturally loved. But he's still prevailed. The GOAT in terms of records and stats, yes. But, maybe we can thank Roger for forcing him to up his game, being the 'game changer' and forcing Novak to evolve into the best he could be. They needed each other in terms of Karma.
Proverbs 27:17 proclaims: “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another”. This simple statement has been a calling for all these years to understand that no one is alone. That in order to make yourself better, there is a mutual benefit making others better through mentorship, follower-ship, and leading.
Novak is the best tennis player of all time. 🐐
He is an extraordinary athlete, awesome and charitable human being. One of the world's most a hight in EQ and IQ.
We ♥ Novak. ♥😍😘🥰😊🤣
Truly the chosen ☝🏼 🐐
There is no place for debate anymore. He may not be the most naturally gifted but he's clearly the greatest. And he'll probably never be surpassed.
He is the most naturally gifted what are you talking about? He plays tennis like its nothing
@@user-mf5ue6rc5n I'm not sure I agree. Federer may be more naturally talented. But in the end tennis greatness is about more than natural abilities.
@@user-mf5ue6rc5n had he been naturally gifted he would have started winning the moment he entered the court,but that's not what happened,he improved and learned and became the greatest ever,and he's still learning and improving.
@@prafulyadav661 what??? He won his first slam younger than Federer?
@@user-mf5ue6rc5n Federer has a more natural ability to pull off great strokes with ease. Roger had an inconsistent mentality game before his first Slam, but after that his game flowed like no one else's. Rafa has the best natural talent to play on clay, as soon as he started competing on clay he won everything all the time.
Nole was a great competitor when young but he struggled against Rafa outside hard court and against Roger on all surfaces. It took him a couple of year until 2011, when he became almost invincible on all surfaces (he even beat Rafa multiple times on clay since then despite having a 0-8 H2H on clay pre-2011). He became the king of Australia, the most consistent competitor in USO, the second best player in FO and probably one of the 2 greatest players in Wimbledon (en route to become the best).
That didn't happen overnight like it did for Rafa on clay, but he is the player with the most improvement on his game BY FAR. The hardest worker of all time. A true inspiration.
CONGRATS DJOKOVIC!!!
YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST !!!

Now NoVac has a tremendous advantage over all the other players: he's unjabbed. So he'll be smashing the competition for a lot more years, and will definitely go down in history as the undisputed GOAT.
He was smashing them before and after everyone got the vaccine. No difference...Maybe it's the veganism...You can look at other sports where the top players have been vaccinated. What's your evidence for the vaccine having an effect on athletic performance?
Where are all those piles of bodies we were supposed to see by now according to the moronic conspiracy theorists?
Agreed. O am surprised that you did not get likes Only me so far? the Brainwashing and the fear must be complete....
@@zivkovicable , don't be so naive. Those top athletes who are still doing well can't have been jabbed, well they're multi millionaires surely they could have found a way to go around this. Even common people like some people I know could avoid getting jabbed and they could show proof they were vaccinated. Also, replacing the real stuff with some saline water is extremely common too, just notice how NONE of the tens of thousands of politicians around the world ever got any adverse side effects, while some people around me and you did, some were very bad. This is the reality. But assuming these other top tennis players really got injected with the real stuff, then NoVac would still be the world's very best for many more years, no other top players can touch him anymore.
Rafa is by far my favorite but I think Novak is the best player ever. He's simply a machine.
Yeah, but is kind of hard to say that. Djok is far from the best on clay...that would be Nadal. Djok is the best on hard courts maybe. Federer has one more Wimbledon title the Djok...so I have to say he is still the best on grass. Djok and Nadal are tied for total grand slams...so neither is better by that measure.
I grew up watching Federer and even I have come to admit that Đoković is better than both him and Nadal overall as a player. There simply is no comparison anymore
Of course he is the G.O.A.T at this point arguing otherwise is delusional
Love him or hate him. But show the respect he deserves!
Djoker doesn't just play tennis, he plays his opponents.
Absolutely he is!
More than greatest!

There was a time where everyone accepted that rafa and roger are going to be greatest in tennis same for messi and ronaldo and in football and it happened what everyone expected and accepted but here in tennis Novak started doing better than others and still doing good so that’s might be the reason lke its better to hate it than accept it.
N. Djokovic --- GOAT for ever!!!
What he’s overcome it’s just amazing.
Nole has been my favorite tennis player and sports figure since 2008 and I honestly thought I knew everything there was to know about him, but learning here that through his foundation that he started at just 19 yrs old that he has so far opened 50 schools is just mind blowing, and he’s been blowing my mind for 15 straight yrs! What an incredibly amazing human being…🙇♂
Novak is definitely the GOAT. Whatever you do on the court against him, he will do it better and leave you with no solution. He has neutralized Roger's serve, Rafa's forehand and so on. And his mindset is from another planet. Give him one more year and he will prove to the world that the GOAT debate is over for good.
Well, at the time of this upload, Novak Djokovic has 22 Grand Slam titles 😀
I can't name a single athlete who not only contended for the big trophies alongside two other all time greats, but surpassed them. What Djokovic has done is similar to someone becoming better than Michael Jordan, Wayne Gretzky or Tom Brady while they were at the peak of their abilities. It is absolutely insane how much he's dominated Fedal since entering in his prime. He has zero weaknesses in his game and can make every shot in any given moment.
People don't realize it because the media often downplays his achievements and tries to paint him as some sort of villain when he's clearly a very kind person, but objectively, he has dominated the tour for OVER A DECADE. Not to mention contending with the likes of Wawrinka and Murray who are also both top 10-15 all time players and Del Potro, who, when healthy was one of the very best players on the tour.
He has quite literally won every single important tournament the ATP can offer which has never been done in the Open Era, while playing in the toughest era ever (maybe in sports history?), while dealing with constant crowd and media lies and distractions, and while being from war-torn Serbia with no resources. There is simply no one like him. He is without a doubt the greatest tennis player of all time and is arguably the greatest athlete ever. We will never see someone like Novak Djokovic ever again.
"won every single important tournament the ATP can offer which has never been done in the Open Era" x 2 :)
He hasnt surpassed Federers number of Wimbledon titles. Nadal is infinitely better at the French open with many more of those titles. Nadal and Djok are tied for overall grand slams. The best you can say at this point is that Djok is the best at hard courts. Nadal is the best at clay courts. Fed is the best at grass courts.
@@donkey3187 So ,if you have one wimby more than me but you have lost all the finals against me,you are better??
@@dimitrism.1814 Catch up, things have changed since my comment...Djok is now the greatest of all time as ihe is one win away from another Wimbledon and French title. He is definitley the best all time on grass and hard courts now. Of course, if you just go by surface, Nadal is by far the best ever on clay...even Djok would agree with that. But overall, its Djok now.
@donkey3187 there's no debate since 2021. It's not only about gs trophies
The first full tennis match I ever watched was the Wimbledon 2019 final. That led to me enjoying Nole from there :)
Breaking records will shut people up
"If you don't love him, at least you have to respect him". That's exactly what I think about him. You just can't overlook everything he has achieved and how he's endured the most outrageous things, such as the AO ban last year or frequently having the crowd against him. He's huge.
Novak's the Best.❤
And still countin'...
The best at what? Not clay courts...that's Nadal by far. Not grass...Federer has one more Wimbledon title than he does. Not at overall grandslam wins...hes tied with Nadal. The only thing you can say hes greatest at to date is on hard courts.
The greatest. Pureblood
yep...the most significant battle he had to face and he was willing to walk away from tennis for his stance against the jabs unlike the other tennis players who easily complied.
Human Giant Tennis Goat
Nice video... 👍
...Djokovic has been my favourite since 2007. It has been a roller coaster over the years, but alot of joy in between.
For me Djokovic has developed the strongest game, and has impressive mental and physical strength too.
If he can keep his body fit and his mind focussed, we are hopefully in for a few more years of joy 🤞 That's when it is going to be interesting to see the stats, when all is said and done.
But for now #1 for 378 weeks by the end of this month, and surpassing Steffi Graf's record, will be his next achievement to enjoy! 👍👍
A great video about the GREATEST OF ALL TIME! 🎾🐐🇷🇸🏆 WE NEED MORE OF SUCH VIDEOS to show the world and all the haters what an amazing human being Novak Djokovic is!
2:51 “the fact that he knew he would never get the same love or endearment that his rivals got” that part is so true. I remember entire stadiums borderline screaming and crying at him every time he got a point on Federer during the Grand Finals. He was just a kid who grew up in poor, war-torn Serbia going up against the Swiss god himself who is worshipped and beloved by the whole world. The mental fortitude required to have overcome that, I cannot fathom.
...Yes, he is...He's GOAT...KING OF TENNIS!
Yes he has all the records and will probably go on to achieve even more. BUT for me his greatness as an athlete and a human comes from the fact that he refused to take the "vaccine" even if it cost him his legacy and go against the powers that be. That requires conviction and morals of the highest order and that too for someone who's at the pinnacle of his sport.
Salute to Novak. The GOAT.
100%. Savage principles!!!
🤣
I was so glad to hear that he refused this so called "vaccines" for me that was more important than playing some tennis. Thank you Novak, i love you
Mostly hardcourt players can adapt to grass courts quickly and faster than clay court players though it is slowed down but faster than clay courts also
Same thing about Grass court player can adapt to hard courts faster only
13>11>6 hardcourt major titles of Big 3 players.
8>7>2 grass court major titles of Big 3.
But Hardcourt players can adapt to clay courts than grass court players.
Rafael Nadal adapt to which surface after clay courts it is hardcourts or grass courts I don't know
He didn't reach finals in US Open and Australian open before 2009 actually
But he already reached finals at the Wimbledon 3 Times straight actually.
But he won 3 hardcourt titles in 2005 which is big thing only
Rafael Nadal excelled hardcourts after Clay courts than grass courts since 2005. But he adapted to grass courts faster than other players also which is big thing. Djokovic is still growing on grass courts. He didn't fully mastered it yet before Nadal
Rafael Nadal reached finals 3 Times at Wimbledon(2006 to 2008) also and won 1st Wimbledon title actually.
Rafael Nadal already have 9 major titles with him in 2010 and Djokovic have only 1 major title in 2010.
Rafael Nadal became mature earlier than Novak Djokovic physically and mentally on 3 surfaces when it comes to playing majors though he is just 1 year older than Djokovic also
Rafael Nadal became pro player in 2001 and Djokovic became pro player in 2003. He is slow at being pro player also.
He is playing great since 2007 but playing highest level of tennis since 2011.
Novak Djokovic ruling Wimbledon for a decade for 7 years from 2011 to 2022 when Rafael Nadal is finished on grass courts completely for 6 years.
From 2014 to 2022
He won 6 Wimbledon titles actually.
Rafael Nadal is already showing age and decline physically and mentally since 2011 to 2022 on grass court and hard courts also.
Big 3 players are best in their ways
Novak Djokovic played great in 2007 to 2010 but not strong enough to win major titles.
But he managed to win Australian open title in 2008 which is incredible.
Rafael Nadal prime ended early before Novak Djokovic also in 2015 before clay court season mostly
He is started showing age and decline physically and mentally also on grass courts from 2012 to 2017
When Djokovic won 2 Wimbledon titles in 2014 and 2015 actually
Rafael Nadal Prime ended in 2015 and Novak Djokovic prime ended in 2016 and Roger Federer Prime ended in 2012.
Prime Nadal ended before clay court season in 2015 only when he was 29 years old only which dropped him to world ranking no 5 also.
My fav tennis (sports) yt channel recently, keep it up guyss what a great content🫶🫶
Is Novak the Greatest Tennis Player ever is sort of asking if grass is green? Duh !!
The GOAT debate is over. The only arguments left for the Djokovic haters are non-measurables. That’s why they just resort to saying the records aren’t everything to avoid objective discussion.
Wow I am surprised, there are only few channels exists, not even few may be 3 or 4 in the internet who aren't biased and make a legit video about Novak Djokovic. There are thousands of videos, tabloids, articles where they have done character assassination of him, ( for eg: one of the titles I saw '89 reasons to hate Djokovic' 🤣) , I mean seriously, his only fault was that he defeated their favorite player and doesn't belong from an elite developed country, may be the elite western society doesn't see him as their equals. PS: Djokovic will not just go down in history as the Goat in tennis but probably the greatest athlete ever irrespective of sports for his principles and integrity.
Yes! Absolutely. 👍
In one hand the most rich western socity hate him, but in the other hand the rich (not west), middle and poor socity loves djokovic. And everyone of them knows what he is going trough especially who lives in one of these rich western countries.
A player who always gives thumbs up or applause for good points to the opponents and many times corrects the referee's decision in favor of the opponent has never won a sportsmanship award . And don't forget that he was the only top ranked player who stood up for the lower ranked players to get more money... And the "sportsman of the year" for 18 years were guys who always disrespected Djokovic's game, injuries, decisions, life, or just stated that "the rules are rules" (said the Covid-infected player who entered Australia and won the AO2022 in Djokovic's absence). It must be difficult to be the "sportsman of the year"... And when other "sportmans of the year" hit referee, ball collectors or crowd it's funny, but when Djokovic unintentionally hit Oscar-awarded referee it's DEFCON 2.
There is no comparisons between these 3 players. They made their own way, all three are great players 👏.
They promoted tennis, They become master piece for everyone. Hats off...
Good and informative video
Bravo Upload..
Yeah Simply The Best..
I am a great Roger's fan and i think we will never see someone else playing like him but, numbers are numbers and Nole will finish his career as the strongest player ever.....he is an absolute Phenomenon, very lucky to see the biggest 3 playing in my same time!
He is unmatched. The true GOAT of tennis.
Buzzz...wrong. Hes not on clay...thats Nadal byfar. Hes not on grass...Fed still has one more Wimbledon than he has. He\ doenst have the most grand slam wins...hes tied with Nadal. The only thing hes best at to date is hard courts.t
@@donkey3187 u have the right screen name
@@ChristopherP Because donkeys are always right?
Novak is the GOAT. Most weeks in number one by a large margin by now is a GOAT achievement. Winning a slam can be a fluke but being no. 1 solidifies your status as the best. And the fact he's #1 in Slams. If he didn't miss couple of recent slams, he's basically leading right now.
It's just silly to debate this by now, all statistical numbers are in favor to him and couple of ridiculous feats. Had Roger/Rafa has his achievements right now, they will be called GOAT now with no debate. It's just wild how this guy is in the shadow of Roger and Rafa all these years.. well in fact he's the MAN.
Great video
This just a incredible video u left me in shock i new that Novak was the goat but the way u said it was just INCREDIBLE GOOD JOB 👍
It is my opinion that he has,time and time again, prove to be first and foremost a quality human being. And also the greatest tennis player of all time. Most people are casual watchers of tennis. Normally, most folk like to watch the best against the best. Most folk, when you break it down, in reality do not care so much about Fed or Rafa nor Nole. But most people have become so lazy that they are metaphorically speaking…being spoon fed by the media on what to think and what to believe. It is the western media who have been on auto repeat…always calling* him the villain. Apart from 2-3 things that could be considered as mistakes, he continues to be a total beautiful soul on and off the court. Anyone with even a little bit of intelligent critical thinking knows that the mainstream media does not know how to be honest
I love Roger cause his tennis is so beautiful and natural but the GOAT is Novak, impossible in all tennis history to find a full components of factors and skills in one player as you can see in Novak.
How is this even a question at this point.
Novak DJOKOVIC is the Best and the Greatest Tennis 🎾 player we ever seen.
From a Rafa's fan.
As a Fed fan, I always respected but also hated Novak. Everytime Federer had to face him I had to get ready to be hurt, to see him battle just to die at the end, being very close. I HATED Novak, but I admire him now. He was always against crowds, the press overlooked him multiple times in favor of Fed or Rafa and since WB '19, Federer for me lost that, almost, unanimous title of GOAT to Djokovic.
This needs to be a preview to a Must Watch Epic Movie..!!!! The greatest athlete & spokesman deserves a Movie.. reminds me of an amazing athlete & Tony Robins put together???? 😮❤😅
Per aspera ad astra!
Nole, we love you! 😍
Number say is the best tenis player ever 👍👏👏
This shouldnt be a question anymore...
been rooting for the guy since the early 2010s! so happy and proud for how his incredibly hard work bore fruit!
Watching my friend.
When you factor in that he was denied participation in so many tournaments on grounds that have nothing to do with sports and was disqualified from one slam because of what was a pure coincidence (US Open), and that despite that he is better than everybody else in all segments except the number of Grand Slams won, where he is tied with Nadal, then OF COURSE HE IS THE BEST EVER.
Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Nick Kyrgios and many many more players considering Nole is the greatest player to held a racquet. No doubt about it, the history and the statistics will tell the truth
Since 2011, Novak 21 Grand Slams, Nadal 13 and Federer 4. Novak has dominated this era with Nadal’s clay dominance (9 of his 13) is the only thing keeping it relatively close. This era of tennis has been amazing with the 3 greatest players of all time playing at the same time making Novak’s accomplishments even more amazing.
Love his work ethic... Your body will tell you.
As a die hard Federer fan, it’s hard for me to have to admit it, but Novak is the GOAT. However, if everyone is going to just count who has the most slams as the GOAT, then the race isn’t over. Nadal still has a chance if he can get his health right. But there is no denying Novak’s numbers. The guy is pretty unbelievable.
This was uploaded today and yet you mention 21, not 22 grand slams at 7:09
