John McEnroe has a common wish for Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic
Recently, former American player and legendary figure John McEnroe reflected on these superstars and revealed his wish regarding these three supreme athletes. He felt that the ‘Big 3’ should end their careers having won the same number of Slams.
He stated, “I would like all three to end their careers with the same number of Grand Slams. I have already seen that Roger and Novak congratulated Nadal and that is gentlemanly. All three are so great, I want them to be equal. At the moment, that seems unlikely. The question is, will Roger win another title? In fact, how much longer will he play.“
