Who is the greatest of all time?

Federer 159 66.53%
 
Nadal 15 6.28%
 
Djokovic 15 6.28%
 
Sampras 18 7.53%
 
Other 32 13.39%
 
Total:239

Federer is probably the greatest, but I must add that the big four of Fed, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray have had a fantastic level of consistency for many years, with some great rivalrys. We are very lucky to witness this era of tennis because I haven't seen anybody who could step into their shoes just yet when they eventually wear down or retire. Del Potro looked a likely challenger but injuries have plagued his career and Cillic has underperformed too.

Objectively, Federer. Though my favorite was Bjorn Borg.

Nothing, and I mean nothing can best Federer. He's 33, isn't he? And still #2. It's THAT incredible.



Nadal is my favorite, but I don't consider him "greatest male tennis player" quality. For me, that's between Federer and Sampras. Roger's backhand looks so effortless and graceful and he's very well rounded. Pete was a monster in his time too and who didn't love his jump shot? lol
