The way Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic have dominated men's tennis over the last two decades is something that's highly unlikely to ever be repeated in the future. Having pushed each other to become better, the Big 3 are the only players among the men to reach 20 Grand Slam titles each.In that context, television network Eurosport recently conducted a poll on its social media, asking fans to select the greatest player of all time. The results showed the 21-time Grand Slam champion, Djokovic, as the clear winner, with 51% of people voting for him. Federer came in second with 28.2% votes, while Nadal was third with 20.8% of the votes. The total number of votes shown was 4,662.It was a proud moment for the Serb's fans and they expressed their jubilation, but they were hardly surprised. Many suggested that while Federer and Nadal might be more popular than Djokovic, it's the stats that matter when deciding on the GOAT debate."Numbers speak and will always speak. Future generations will just read stats. Like I don’t know much about older generations such as Connors or McEnroe, all I read is the stats next to their names, that is all that stays in the end. The goat is the one that statistically is best," a fan tweeted.Cotrfl 🇨🇦@cotrflo@eurosport @NoleLondon Numbers speak and will always speak. Future generations will just read stats.

I have to admit I have seen a marked change in the media's attitude to Novak even since Roger announced his retirement. Long may it continue, but we all know it probably won't," the user wrote.Pavvy G@pavygWow so Eurosport's have even tweeted about the result even though it didn't go the way it wanted!I have to admit I have seen a marked change in the medias attitude to Novak even since Roger announced his retirement.
