Laver if he was around in the age of Sampras and Federer would have overwhelmed them by his amazing talent.he would have been as fit as them but his talent would have the edge

Yes that is true..but in those days regular tournaments had more prestige almost up there with GS.many of those tournaments were played on every type of surface,Rod dominated in all,almost triple the amount of Tourneys as Roger in 1 year, not to mention check out Rods doubles record,Rod mixed Doubles, Davis cups..all this spanning until his mid-late 30's. Rod did every reconisable consumable achievement in tennis and more, not once ,twice..but 3 times!!

are u taking into account that Laver's area was not as deep and that 3 of the grandslams were played on grass in his time?

I already have Roger Federer on the HIGHEST pedestal...
He makes it impossible not to place him there
Sheer TALENT and CLASS...What more could you possibly ask for ...?

Laver the GOAT the guy did the pinicale(calander slam) of tennis not once but twice plus many years taken away which certainly would of increased his GS tally to more like 20-22 rather then 11, followed by Roger..once he wins the French I will place him on the highest pedestal.
