Roger Federer won one more grand slam. Federer is a good tennis player. Federer is the best tennis player in last five years. But Is he the greatest ever? I doubt.
I think, There is lack of brilliant tennis players in the world today. Closest person who can compete with Federer in this era is Nadal, and Nadal isnt quiet in the list of best ever.
In the 80's, there were Boris Becker and Stephen Edberg. 90's saw, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi. Last 10 years it is Federer and Nadal.
However 80's had Becker, Edberg, Wilander, Pat Cash, Ivan Lendl, B. Borg, John McEnroe, Jimmy Connors who have won multi grand slams.
90's had Jim Courier, Becker, Sampras, Agassi, Bruguera, G.Kuerten, P. Rafter etc who have won multi grand slams.
If we look at last 6 years or so, there has been almost none other than Federer and Nadal who is capable of winning more than one grand slams. Does it show Federer and Nadal's dominance or does it show the lack of other players and their ability to compete?
