There's more to it but no need to continue to list more

At least get it right...

Since when did Federer obtain 418 weeks at #1???

> 100 titles... come on that's scraping the barrel everyone knows he's won > 100 titles because of winning 250s and playing longer...

As a whole those records are not as great as Nadal's anyway...

Thanks for proving my point...

Federer has 310, 101 more weeks than Nadal. That's 2 years.

Since there's only two players hit the century mark, 100+ titles is certainly an impressive stat. Much more meaningful than the Olympics since it hardly has long, rich history, and many players like Sampras chose to skip it and play small tournaments at the interstate.

Disagree. Federer's run and records are more impressive

Nadal has won 8 slams on less preferred surfaces. (beating Fedovic for 4 of them).

Djoker has won 8 slams on less preferred surfaces. (beating Fedal for 6 of them).

Before someone thinks "yeah Nadal has 3 such slams per year and Nole only 2": yes, that's correct, and that also means Djoker has 2 slams on his best courts while Nadal has only 1.
Anything to soothe your butthurt :laughing:

‘No. 1 forever!’ – Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer not on Rafael Nadal’s level, says Ion Tiriac

Rafael Nadal is the best player to ever play the game of tennis, that is according to former player Ion Tiriac. The once French Open quarter-finalist says that Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic are not comparable to the Spaniard. "Rafael Nadal is the best of all. Neither Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer are on his level," said Tiriac, as reported by Eurosport Spain.

No lies detected. Nadal was always likely to be the Greatest Male player ever considering the talent he showed at a young age. He has fulfilled his potential. Hard work is of course the key

Perhaps, because Federer was ahead of everyone? Now, he's praising Nadal.

No he was praising them all but the greatest was no doubt the Swiss as he said, he called him the Baryshnikov of tennis and talked in those terms, It was some years ago but I remember it clearly

Age has nothing to do with it anymore, they are in such phenomenal shape these days and have all the help they need on every level! Even Cilic is still going, the big 3 are so far superior that Im sure Fed can be super competitive on grass even a step slow? The first couple of tournaments might be poor from his standards at this age and with such a massive surgery
