Rafa dominates one surface and can't stay healthy the rest of the time. It definitely matters to the greatest ever conversation.

rafa is commonly mistaken as a clay court specialist. without a doubt he is one of the best to play on clay, but he has won wimbledon twice, aussie open once, US open once, and he's been to another 3 wimbledon, 1 aussie, and 1 US finals. health-wise, this is something out of his control. it's unfortunate that his career has been limited by the health of his foot/knee. any rafa fan who tells you that roger isn't the greatest of all time is probably brainwashed, even rafa himself has said that roger is the GOAT. but to reduce rafa to a mere clay court opportunist and ignore all of his other successes is belittling to him and tennis as a whole.
