Today (Wimbledon Final Day) many are calling Fed the greatest player ever, and he may be. But not because of winning 15 Slams. The last two were won with his greatest rival sidelined. There are always special circumstances . In tennis, you play as well as your opponent lets you.
Laver couldn't compete in any slams between 1963 and 1968 (when open tennis began.
Steffi won 22 slams between 1987 and 1999. Pretty impressive, I would think.
Great is not a number. And Fed IS one of the greats.
Graf won loads of slams in the womens game that a whole different ball game to be honest. Laver has said Federer is the greatest player ever to grace the court, he can do anything we saw the fight that Roger could manage yesterday 16-14 in the fifth
ALYWYN06 You're right. I disagree with people who say that Rog is the greatest BECAUSE HE HAS WON 15 SLAMS. Laver's comments boiled down to "look at Rog's skills" his footwork, his racket control, etc. Laver also said that it makes more sense to evaluate players by era. He is right there, too. Bill Tilden, contemporaries said, more or less INVENTED the cannonball serve, the dropshot and the use of the all-court game. Each great player makes a unique contribution. comparisons are odious.
omg amazing video, that just pumped me the hell up......federer nadal french final 09'.........can you sense it??.....can you feel it?.......Federer in 4 sets!!!!!
Future Prediction: FEDERER WILL BEAT NADAL IN FO 2010 ..!!!

why do you have to abbreviate it? its not as if you can't type sufficient characters. "Greatest of All Time" sounds much more impressive.
