Everyone seems inclined to go for the first option, personally I find it rather unrealistic to have three of the 4-5 best ever players all in the same time period If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Overall quality of tennis these days is rather bad. Every major talent proved that...wasnt that talented at all. Dimitrov,Goffin,Monfils,Zverev... Maybe Tsitsipas can do something more but who knows...wouldnt be first one to fail. Cant even speak about women. Those 3 are just monsters. We could be somehow proud to be able to watch all of them in their prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that, in almost every sport the current great is always considered to be 'the best ever' or at least 'one of the best ever' (Federer/Nadal/Djokovic, Schumacher/Vettel/Hamilton, M Fourcade, M Hirscher, C Ronaldo/Messi etc) and it always seems like everyone forgets the possibility that maybe their competition is just, relatively speaking, not really strong leading to them winning so much as they do If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

NBA,F1,Football, it was always like Messi and Ronaldo,Jordan and Bird,Domracheva and Kuzmina...Actually,you are right,in 90% someone is GOAT just because competion isnt that good. Serena is great but just because opponents are teribble. Fourcade is great for the same reason... And so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
