Over.

Nadal is great everywhere, just not better than Djoker and Federer on hard/grass. Literally 123 however you want to rank them on the Tennis Goat list.

King of Clay continues his reign.

Why is Nadal only great on clay?

He's been better on grass lately, only lost basically the Final in 5 sets to Djokovic(ok it was a semi but that was the real final). Not to mention winning USO in 17. Be serious, if you're gonna troll... do your homework.

Nadal breathed a huge sigh of relief when wind dispatched Nole, this could have been a whole different story.

Why are most of his titles and majors on clay, then?

Clay is for the best athletes.

Other surfaces are for the best TENNIS players.

Clay negates tennis SKILL to allow athletes to overcome a lack of tennis skill.

Klay plays basketball, dumbass!

I don't know how you can say a man who has a career grand slam, won 1/3 of his titles on non clay and played in an era that featured the GOAT grass player and GOAT hard Court player and still managed to win six times on those surfaces.

Fed fans should be worried. If he eclipses him the argument will anf should be made that Rafa is the GOAT.

Right now Fed still had the logical lead. It's an uneasy lead at the moment however

he's won 12 of the last 15 french opens lol .. that shit isn't even domination anymore .. don't know how to describe that

He's the greatest court specialist of all time. He's not above Federer, Djokovic, or Sampras, though. Dominating on the rarest court there is doesn't make you a top 3 all time great. Djokovic is arguably the greatest hard court player of all time and 75% of matches are played on the hard court. You can't put someone who dominates the rarest court there is over someone who is yjr greatest on the one that is played on 3/4 matches of the season.

Nadal dominated his preferred surface more than anyone ever.

1/4 of the Majors are played on his preferred surface and he still has 18 titles, currently 3 away from being alone at the top.

That's why he would be GOAT. Joker gets to play 1/2 of his Majors on his preferred surface and still couldn't eclipse the total of Nadal.

I don't know how in the world you could put Pete over Nadal at this point. He never made a FO final, that's a major mark against him when compared to the Feds, Nadals, Jokers.

Way to ignore the fact that French Open has the weakest competition of any slam. Most of the top players in the world have clay as their weakest surface.

1 trick ponies that use drugs to enhance their capabilities are not GOATs, nice try though.

Wimbledon starts tomorrow, what are y'all thinking? Looks like it's gonna be a typical Djokovic vs Federer finale with Novak probably taking it.
