Is there anyone but trolls, Serbs and Russians left who like this guy
His tennis is amazing, I can’t deny that. Clearly one of the best, if not the best ever. But it staggers me how many folks so readily heap adulation on somebody who seems to be such a tedious sort of fellow.

A long long way to go ? He is 19 ranked in the top dozen players in the game and won the Paris Masters beating this ignorant pig. I’m not saying he will be better than Alcaraz but I’m saying he is on his way to the top echelon of the game.
You see, you lose all credibility when you make statements like “ignorant pig”. Pathetic.

Novak is going to beat Nadals slam total

Comfortably too. He'll end up with 26-27 at least. All depends on when Nadal retires really.

Laughable how behind the next gen are to a 36yo, even if that 36yo is the best there will be. Shocking look for them but Novak has a ton of longevity left in him..he doesn't move or even look his like his age...he currently looks like he could play til 42

I just don't understand this mindset and probably never will

It's like you have nothing else going on in your own life
Generally a mindset embraced by the foolish.

“I don’t get why all these smart people hate person X, so I’m going to be contrary and love them just so that all those smart people are annoyed. It just makes me feel better.”

26-27? I wish. Grand slams are very hard to win. Just because it looks like Novak is possibly heading towards another, it doesn’t mean that the run won’t dry up suddenly. Alcaráz, Sinner, Tsitsipas, Zverev, Korda, Rune, the challengers are increasing and Novak is only getting older. I take nothing for granted.

Who are these "smart people" you are referring to?

Like him more than Federer and it’s not even close. Always have.

Ditto here.
Novak is just staggering in terms of what he has produced. 21 majors DURING the best era of all time. It’s astounding. His tennis even at 60% is still better then anyone close.
It’s funny, because people always say sports is not about politics, but get salty and try to pin something on Novak. Undisputed GOAT, but apparently he’s a s**t person and his game is boring/unsocial. Triggers people.
