Denis Kudla had the chance to play
Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon recently and the American was impressed.
The American gave Djokovic a real test at Wimbledon almost forcing the match to go 4 sets after some stellar tennis in the 3rd set. However Djokovic rallied in time to keep the match in three sets and speaking about that experience Kudla said:
“I think he (Djokovic) is the greatest of all time. I
think he will surpass all of the records by a lot when all is said and
done. He just plays the game so incredibly well. It would have been
interesting to see if the ages were a little different… if Fed was the
youngest, or Rafa was the youngest."
Kudla is only one of many tennis professionals who slowly realizing that Djokovic has a tremendous chance to rewrite the record books especially considering his level is not dropping off even at age 34. Kudla also added:
"I think Novak deserves to be the GOAT, he is the GOAT, he does things nobody is willing to do. And I don’t think he’s just the GOAT in tennis. He could be the greatest athlete of all time."
