Tennis fans during the past decade have been blessed with the fact that they have watched possible the most competitive and best era of tennis in the history of the sport. This has mainly been down to a couple of individuals mainly Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal, but Novak Djokovic has always been in the shadow of these two players, but can he go onto eclipse the achievements that these two have achieved?
It is a very difficult conversation as Djokovic is still behind Federer and Nadal in terms of fewer Grand Slam wins and ultimately this is what will depend or not if he can become the goat of the tennis world. Federer and Nadal both have 20 grand slams wins between them and with them two tying, it makes it difficult to split the two. However, Djokovic does have 17 himself and with him being the younger man, he certainly does have the opportunity to overtakes them if he plays his cards right, starting off this Sunday in his next Grand Slam final where he is heavy favourite to win priced at 11/12. If you are interested in the gambling world, many sports punters have been migrating to online casinos, you can find some here, in which they have been producing profits from the comfort of their own home whilst they wait for the next big tennis match to happen.
Furthermore, Djokovic hasn’t spent as many weeks as number one in the world as the other two big hitters in the world. The stats do seem to be stacking against Djokovic in terms of calling himself the goat but sometimes it’s not as simple as statistics. Djokovic has played some of the most dominant tennis seen on the tour in recent times and has picked up all major honours and big titles on the tour. Djokovic has won just about everywhere he has played whether that be all the Grand Slams, nine Master’s 1000’s and the ATP Finals which isn’t the case for the other two. Not only that, but Djokovic is the only player to have held all four Grand Slams on three different surfaces in the same year which again proves the dominance of ther Serbian. Although it is very difficult to split these three to who is the best, Djokovic is certainly closer than many thinks.
