The greatest of all time debate will never get old and as long as the three main candidates continue playing it will be discussed.
The latest to share his opinion on the matter is a former player and current coach Rick Macci who worked with many of the best players in history such as Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Andy Roddick, Maria Sharapova, and others. Macci knows tennis very well so his opinion on the matter largely focused on things related to tennis forgetting about the off-court stuff.
He said:
"Everybody loves Federer because of the way he plays, so graceful and
artistic and stuff like that. [If] we judge it on how many Slams that you
win you can’t argue with Djokovic. Because of the way his consistency
and staying up there, and having very few speed bumps."

A fair point by Macci and one that is often brought up when discussing Djokovic as the GOAT. The Serbian will likely end up with the most grand slams in history which is something Nadal is expecting as well admitting so recently.
Macci also added:
"Why don’t we do this in a few years and you can ask me the question
[again] because I think it’s still to be determined. It
looks like Novak [Djokovic] right now. But Federer is maybe the best
player of all time in my opinion, but Novak might go down as the
greatest."
He finished off:
“But don’t count out Rafa [Nadal] either. I think maybe there’ll be a tie."

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!
mandoist09-11-2026 - "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?
mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
mandoist08-11-2026 - Wtf? Why is there no reason? And what about the men's?Bel08-11-2026
- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
