That's why Roger is the GOAT. He's an artist, going for creative shots and plays to win points, rather than just hunker down hitting baseline shots and waiting for his opponent to make a mistake.

Ah, the GOAT debate . . . Ali is the greatest boxer not because he won the most, but because of his beauty, style, elegance, charisma, ease, effortlessness, and total superiority when he was on. He captivated the world's imagination the way no other boxer before or since - far beyond boxing fans. It's the same exact thing with Roger. Yes, of course Djokovic has a superior record by now. But how many has he charmed with his tennis? How many have fallen in love with his style, his flair, his genius? Roger, Ali, MJ, Pele - they're just different.

When he was in his prime, Federer's movement was so fast, nobody moves better on the court. Federer was also very inventive in creating new shots, new angles. He is brilliant in that way, more than any other player. When Federer made his shot, lots of time, he did not look at the opposite side of the court, he just look at his racket and the ball, yet he could steer the ball with the right angle and speed. It's magic and very entertaining. :-D

Roger saw opportunities for winning shots where other greats focused on just getting the ball back, i.e. the conservative low risk shot. That's why more people loved watching Roger play than any other, he took the shot that didn't even occur in other players' minds. Nadal would bludgeon his way to victory, Djokovic was like playing against a brick wall, but with Roger there was always the sense that magic could happen at any time. In a class of talented people, he was the genius.

That's because Djokovic is the #3 who found himself in a lucky situation by being younger. He doesn't even come close to Federer in his prime, in fact he couldn't do much of anything against Federer early on, until he got too old, then he overtook him physically. And as far as sportsmanship in general, Djockovic could win 40 grand slams but he would still remain an asshole :)

I’m asking for some insight from people who play the game, because I don’t, though appreciate it.

Thank you much.
@Dilmahkana2 ай бұрын
No, not normal. But like most pro sports people, he has a keen sense of the court and the other player, and control of his racquet so 'looking up' isn't needed as much you'd think. Telegraphing his shot's direction is something they all practice but he was amazing at it, this video shows that really well I reckon. And his precision was fabulous, he probably had a talent for that.

@pierdomenicosommati4433 ай бұрын
I think that what actually counts between Federer and Djokovic, is that when Roger was playing good tennis, Nole could just try to prolong the match, hoping that at some point the Swiss started to make some more errors. Of course Roger's game became less consistent with age, making it difficult for him to prevail in best-of-5 matches... He was able to continue scoring victories over the Serbian though, despite the big age gap, even at 38½ y/o (Finals 2019, when he put Nole out of the tournament). Federer at his best was essentially out of reach for Djokovic. That's the most important thing which makes difficult calling Nole the GOAT.
