The Greatest of All Time, that is the ‘GOAT’ debate in tennis, is expected to rumble on in the years to come. But for Sky Sports commentator Jonathan OverendNovak Djokovic is the ultimate GOAT.

Djokovic is the player with the most Grand Slam titles in Men’s tennis as he won 24 of them, two more than Rafael Nadal, and four more than Roger Federer. The 37-year-old has also spent the most weeks as No.1 in the ATP rankings (428).

Overend said the tennis community shouldn’t dispute it because of how ‘stylish’ Federer looked at Wimbledon or how dominant Nadal was at Roland Garros. The veteran commentator thinks such ‘arguments’ can’t be used because Djokovic too is the most successful player at the Australian Open.

Djokovic edges Nadal 31-29 in the head-to-head encounter, while against Federer, the Serb is 27-23. Federer and Nadal have called time on their respective careers, and Djokovic too hinted at retirement after injury ended his campaign at the recently concluded Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic threw the towel when his hamstring injury made it difficult for him to continue his semifinal match at Melbourne Park against Alexander Zverev. Right after the first set, Djokovic shook hands with the German and it frustrated the crowd on Rod Laver Arena. They booed him when he started to leave the court.

Zverev himself had to admonish them not to as Djokovic is the most successful man in Melbourne with 10 titles. To the booing crowd, Djokovic simply gave thumps-up and later said he didn’t understand why the crowd disrespected him. Jonathan Overend now gave his verdict on the same, saying the whole thing was quite perplexing.

The injury forced Djokovic to pull out of Serbia’s Davis Cup match against Denmark. Reports have now emerged that he could stay on the sidelines for two months, but is expected to make his comeback at the French Open.
