Novak Djokovic has edge over Rafael Nadal in GOAT race despite ‘rough year’ – Barbara Schett
Novak Djokovic is in pole position to win the so-called GOAT race for a record number of Grand Slam men’s singles titles in the Open Era, according to Barbara Schett, as the Serbian looks well placed to outlast Rafael Nadal physically. The record is currently held by Nadal, who has claimed 22 major victories during his 17-year career. Ad Djokovic has won 21 Grand Slam titles, but he looks unlikely to get the chance to equal the record at the US Open later this month.
