Mouratoglou Makes a Bold Declaration

Djokovic Is the Greatest Tennis Player Ever

With Djokovic's recent 24th Grand Slam win at the 2023 US Open, Mouratoglou highlights the Serbian's unparalleled achievements and believes there is no debate about his greatness in the tennis world. 

He also predicts that Djokovic will continue to add more titles to his impressive record, solidifying his status as the greatest.

Mouratoglou remarked, “I think it is always difficult to compare sports because I don’t know the other sports well enough to say that one sportsman is better than all the others in other sports. But definitely in tennis, there is no discussion about the fact that he is the greatest considering his achievement.”

He confidently stated, “And he’s going to keep playing for a few more years and will win many more titles. He won’t stop at 24, even though 24 is already an incredible number. He can win many more, so he’s definitely the greatest.”
