If we have to consoder greatness based on own convinience den why just remove 2 setter den lets go 1 step further and remove 3 setters as well..consider obly 5 seter.. Most no of wimby titles..most consecutive US open titles....most aus opens in open era.. Now we know who is d goat.. Dis filter suits me ;-)

But Fed has a dubious record to his credit
by Demons on Aug 17, 2012 04:03 AM

He's the FIRST & ONLY person in the history of Tennis;

To make 6 First Round Exits with

16 CONSECUTIVE Round Stage EXits without a Q/F win,

starting from a First Round Exit!!

Check the Stat.

That hinders his "Greatness" assessment, besides others!

lolz

Stats shud b compared level-y..Fedex d champ !!

Wrong to compare Grand Slams and non-slams to measure the stats..its all together or somewhat a diff euqation..for dat matter fedex defeated Nadal on clay ( I believe Cincinnati masters)..but dat wont be compared as a revenge for French Open where Nadal has all out wins again fedex...wrong to compare feat achieved by Fedex in 14 years winning Grand Slams whilst other winning masters cup.. In d end total Slams matter not d time..for dat sake Bradman had prolonged career..but still considered as Greatest..Point shudnt b proved just for d sake ...Federer Rules !! :)

The last time tennis dorks lead by Mithani predicted the end of his career was in 2009,when his injury allowed Federer to win his first(and last) French OPen,and to complete his first(and last) French-Wimbledon double(the most difficult feat in tennis,done thrice by Borg and twice by Nadal).And since the 'end' of his career in 2009,Nadal won 5 more Grand Slams.I just love it when the dorks shoot their mouth off and then eat crow later,a regular happening with Mithani.Take your time Rafa,come back and dominate like only you can.
