Rafa the King
Hall of Fame
If they both were to only win one (I know improbable, specially Rafa) which one would help their legacy the most and in what order.
I think getting one more slam, specially outside RG, would be just massive. Slams are by far the most important things, kinda irrelevant to discuss but you never know, some think olympic gold means more
Then we have olympic gold (in singles) he'd be the first ever and one has to wonder how much an OG means. Nole described it as his most important goal of 2016 and some have placed it above a slam.
WTF is still missing from his trophy cabinet and eventhough I don't think history would critisize him heavily for not having one, he'd stillbe achieving something which is only second to slams (third if you place Olympics above WTF)
What I certainly don't agree with people calling the WTF and Olympics a glorified exho. Specially the Olympics. People come to give everything for their country and it means a hell of a lot to them. Just look at their reactions when winning and losing.
