Former doubles number one Rennae Stubbs says that Nadal is the best player on clay ever with Djokovic being nowhere near.
Djokovic did have some wins over Nadal on the red dirt, some of them quite memorable however Stubbs, like many others, believes that the Spaniard is far superior on the surface. We have stats and records and trophy numbers that certainly back that up but some would argue that the best of Djokovic could beat the best of Nadal on clay.
Stubbs doesn't buy it:
"Ah, I said on ALL surfaces, NOT on clay. We all know Rafa is the GOAT on clay. Not even close, but he’s never won a final indoors. At some point, the GOAT has to be about all surfaces as well as the slam count. It’s not a popularity comp. If it was Roger/Rafa win that every time."
