Daniil Medvedev, Sebastian Korda, Ben Shelton among others pick their GOAT outside of tennis

A host of superstars revealed their Greatest of All Times players outside the world of tennis in a video posted on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter.

The video was recorded during the ongoing ATP 1000 Shanghai Masters which will be concluding on Sunday with a final between Russia’s Andrey Rublev and Poland’s Hubert Hurkacz.

America’s Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton, and Greece’s tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas ended up picking former NBA star Michael Jordan as the GOAT player outside tennis.

Italy’s Jannik Sinner named another basketball legend Kobe Bryant as his greatest player outside the world of tennis.

America’s Sebastian Korda ended up picking American golfer Tiger Woods in response to that question.

The most detailed answer was given by two players—Russia’s Daniil Medvedev and Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman.

Medvedev picked Portugal’s star striker Cristiano Ronaldo along with Argentina’s legendary footballer Lionel Messi as his GOAT players.

"Just because I like soccer, I would say Cristiano and Messi, together combined is the GOAT. Let's do it this way. I need to say something," he said.

On the other hand, Schwartzman ended up picking his fellow countrymen Messi and late Diego Maradona as the greatest players outside the world of tennis.

"The GOAT? Outside [of tennis]? Messi and Maradona. Easy question! Argentinian, Messi and Maradona. The Double M," he said.
