Britain’s Jack Draper has picked Serbia’s Novak Djokovic as the
Greatest player Of All Time (GOAT) in tennis. There has been a constant debate
about who is the greatest player in the history of men’s tennis, especially
with the original ‘Big Three’ dominating the sport for a good part of two decades.

The list includes former world number one Switzerland’s Roger Federer, Spain’s legendary tennis star Rafael Nadal and Serbia’s Djokovic. Britain’s Draper has been recently quoted
in a report, in which he was also asked about the same. The 23-year-old was of the opinion
that his heart says it is Nadal but admitted that he agrees with his brain, which tells him that Djokovic is the GOAT player.

“My head says Novak but my heart says Rafa,” he said.
“So, my heart is Rafa Nadal. But who do I think is the best tennis player of
all time? I know, my head says Novak. My heart is Rafa but for me the GOAT is
obviously Novak Djokovic.”

Djokovic is regarded as the most successful player in the
history of men’s tennis as he has lifted the Grand Slam 24 times, which is the
most by any player. The 2024 season was an interesting one for the Belgrade-born, who failed to win a single major title. It was the first time in seven years that
the former world number one failed to achieve such a milestone in a calendar
year. Not only that he also failed to win any ATP event in 2024.

However, Djokovic will remember the 2024 season for all the
right reasons, and it became the year in which he managed to complete his trophy
cabinet. The 37-year-old finally managed to win a gold medal for his country in the Olympics in Paris as he defeated reigning world number three Spain’s Carlos
Alcaraz in the final of the singles category event in straight sets with a
score of 7-6, 7-6.
