G.O.A.T.
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who might say that Lendl won two-thirds of the finals he played in, or people like the OP who say to 2 decimal places that Lendl won 64.38 percent of his finals. That latter group, through unfathomably convoluted reasoning, would conclude that "it is better to lose in the semi-finals than win the semi-finals (and go on to lose the final)," a type of reasoning that a)would assume knowledge of the future outcome of the final, and b)be predicated on the notion that the smaller trophy the runner-up gets is somehow inferior to the no-trophy, smaller pay-day, fewer ranking points, and less TV exposure to please himself and his sponsors the semi-finalist gets.
