when Federer:
a) Stubbornly stays at the baseline, even when he sets up an EASY volley with an aggressive forehand/backhand

He already is a legend. He broke the Fedal stranglehold on slams and major tournaments. But for what its worth, I think tennis aficionados in general would accept him as a legendary player if he had...

You're starting to lose me. Doesn't every match "define" a rivalry? Player A has this type of playing style, player B plays another way. When the two play against one another, we have a "microcosm"...

Federer v Djokovic: Reframing the "GOAT" debate
A common argument against Federer's "GOAT"ness is his record against Rafa Nadal, his "greatest" rival. How can a player be the best ever if he loses almost twice as often to his biggest...

This head to head is in large part due to Nadal being very close in level to Roger and having a huge match up advantage. I also think that the poor head to head is due to Roger being way too stubborn...

This is PETE SAMPRAS we're talking about here, not your run of the mill player. Sampras was the greatest of the 90s, one of the all time greatest as well.
I don't know what his exact ranking would...
