Will you agree with me that Federer must win the French Open to be considered the greatest of all time?

Question

That would be his 13th grandslam and and one shy of Pete Sampras's record......

Answer 1

No because Federer I think is more dominant on court than Sampras(didn't catch much of him cause I only became extremely interested in tennis late 2004.) Federer thumps most of his oppoenents and he makes more brilliant shots.

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

Yeah!

And he will win it someday someway for sure. Even if he doesnt win RG he will b the gr8test player bcause he has come closer to winning RG than Sampras!!!.

Answer 4

It depends on how you measure greatness... it's always debatable. For me, the greatest is always having the most Grand Slams, that would still be Sampras...

Answer 5

Not really....he's won wimbledon 5 times, ...record...us open 4 times....record....Sampras never won wimbledon....yet he is considered great by you.......sampras himself said federer is the greatest of all time....not like Bjorn Borg...never will accept anything.....Lol!...he's only 26....do you know when Pete Sampras won his last grandslam?....at age 31!...He's sure to win at least 16 grandslams...I hope a french is included in that 16!

Answer 6

Yes I completely agree that Federer has to win the French Open to be considered the greatest of all time.

How can you be called the greatest player of all time when you cant win the biggest tournament on clay? That means that you are not the greatest player on clay
