Mardy Fish Drops a Bombshell on Tennis History!
Did you know that American tennis player Mardy Fish claims Roger Federer can’t be the greatest of all time? Yes, you read that right! Known for his humor, Fish tweeted: “He can’t be the greatest if he lost to me. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.”
This statement has stirred up a storm because Federer is one of the greatest players ever, with countless titles and records. But Fish isn’t joking — he once beat Federer in the Indian Wells semifinal and also defeated Rafael Nadal in the Cincinnati quarterfinals. On the flip side, Novak Djokovic has beaten Fish 7 times.
Fish ended his career ranked as high as 7th in the world, which is no small feat. His bold claim shines a light on how personal rivalries and head-to-head records matter when deciding who’s truly the GOAT.
Novak Djokovic and Wimbledon
Meanwhile, Serbian star Novak Djokovic lost an exhibition match to Russian Karen Khachanov at the “Giorgio Armani Tennis Classic” tournament, 6-7, 4-6. Still, Danil Medvedev believes Djokovic has a shot at winning Wimbledon, which is great news for his fans.
What Does This Mean for Tennis?
Is it time to rethink who the greatest really is? Do titles or head-to-head battles decide? Fish reminds us that even players not at the very top can have a say in this heated debate.
Got an opinion? Share it! Maybe you know who the real GOAT is. Or maybe you think this is all just a hilarious joke? Either way, tennis is back in the spotlight, and rivalries have never been juicier.
