Ronnie O'Sullivan wants to take on Novak Djokovic in snooker in order to test the one he considers is the best in tennis history.

Serbian newsppaer Telegraf contacted O'Sullivan for an interview and when they mentioned they were from Serbia he opted to talk a bit about Djokovic. He said:

"You have to admire Djokovic. He is the best player of all time and will win the most Grand Slams in the history of tennis. There are also Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, the three of them are a sporting phenomenon. If we compare Novak and me, we have different styles of play, I am more like Federer. Roger has self-confidence, but Novak is more of a mixture of styles and he has it all in him."

He also wants to see what Djokovic can do in snooker:

"It's okay to win one, two, three Grand Slams, to have a few good years, but these guys have been here for two decades, that makes them great. And yes, if Novak is ready to play a few shots of snooker with me, he can always call me!"

Asked about tennis he said he's willing to give it a try as well:

"Of course! I'm good at tennis. I'm sure I'm better at tennis than Novak is at snooker."
