Roddick Declares Djokovic as Tennis GOAT, Citing Unbeatable Numbers
Former No.1 Andy Roddick asserts that choosing anyone other than Novak Djokovic as the ‘Greatest of All Time’ (GOAT) in tennis makes you an “insane human.” Roddick discussing the GOAT debate on his podcast emphasizes the significance of numbers in making the argument stating that Djokovic’s resume stands out among the ‘big three.’
While acknowledging Federer’s prime as the toughest matchup for him, Roddick insists that Djokovic’s numbers are irrefutable. He attributes Djokovic’s lower recognition to the nuanced nature of his game style describing him as a “surgeon” who methodically picks opponents apart.
Roddick contrasts Djokovic’s subtle excellence with the more obvious strengths of Federer and the physicality and drama associated with Nadal. Despite personal match history, Roddick recognizes Djokovic’s undeniable achievements and strategic prowess.
