When you have average players like Zverev, Anderson, Thiem, Tsitispas and Nishikori in the top 10 this is prob the worst shape Men's tennis has ever been.

I mean the Women get equal pay to play 3 setters! Might be equal rights but it's prob more due to the shambles men's tennis is in and the women draw better.


I’d agree with this, which is why it may be difficult to use Majors to justify who is the GOAT given that there’s a possibility Roger and Rafa regress to a point where Novak has no competition in the near future. Where Roger has always had Rafa and Novak to challenge him, Novak could also be the benefactor of age and tennis’s current lack of a new generational star to challenge him which may allow him to clean up the majors over the next 2-3 years.
