During a recent interview with Marca, the 38-year-old Swiss tennis star discussed the tennis GOAT controversy and picked Djokovic. He stated that Novak Djokovic has demonstrated everything required to be the best among all of them. In terms of pure results and victories, Wawrinka believes Djokovic is ahead of the other two ‘Big 3’ players.
