However, later on, he changed his opinion. From calling Novak the GOAT, he changed his comment. “To say that anyone is greater than Roger Federer is kind of tough,” is what he said. His appreciation turned into a scathing comment which was beyond expected after Novak had just won the 23 Grand Slam title. Also, comparing Novak and Roger, on whom he has already passed nasty comments, did not go down well too.

Not the first time, Mats Wilander made harsh comments about tennis stars

Mats Wilander has always been an admirer of Federer. But during his match in the French Open 2006 against Rafael Nadal, he gave a very harsh statement against him. After witnessing that Federer is losing to Rafael with a four-set defeat, he switched sides and started praising Rafael and demeaning Roger.

It was a very uncalled comment that no one expects from a tennis analyst. He used foul words to represent his disappointment towards Roger’s loss. And on the contrary, this time he chose to be Team Roger again.
