Pete has always been a class act. It’s nice to see different generation talking to each other. Tim does a great job as well.

[@arvindsampath3820]

My current favourite Djokovic and my tennis idol Pete...enjoyed the humble conversation these 2 had...nice anchoring by Tim..I remember the days when Pete was winning everything I literally wanted someone to beat him😀 what so admirable about Pete is that his dead calmness, complete concentration, his stamina and power, he was well ahead of his time kinda of player that too without much technology, advancement in nutrition at that time ....shocking he had to retire at age of 32 else he would have won 3 or 4 GS more. To say otherwise , if same Prime Pete plays now with so much advancement in sports he would have all the capability to dethrone Top 3 with his thunderbolt/accurate serve, Volley, lightening forehand, bullet backhand and his rock solid stamina . I can talk about Pete hours and hours that’s how much I dissected his game and now I love doing it for Novak. 2 amazing players who makes tennis interesting.

[@Eliath1984]

he turned that prostaff 85 into a loaded weapon... would be absolutely terrifying what he would do in his prime with newer racket technology and the advancements they've made in Strings..... Andy Roddick had a HUGE serve.. but Pete's even though it wasn't as fast was always more dangerous.. to quote Jim Courier "Pete has such a presence on the court that is so tough to deal with and you can be as mentally tough as you want to be, you just can't deal with that serve"

[@Vaisin]

I love that Pete has still love from fans around the world. He's such a legend and I love him so much, I also love and respect Nole a lot. From a Federer fan.

[@Bhavyo]

@@Eliath1984 The thing with Pete and his serve was, that he served so good when he needed it. You could almost expect an ace or two in a row when he was down 15:30 or15:40. Pete was absolutely unplayable on some days.

[@Eliath1984]

@@Bhavyo oh I totally agree sir... it was beautiful to watch... I mean he held what... 92% of his service games in the 90s? and won around 82% of his 1st serves in that same time period? it was just unbelievable to watch... and it wasn't because they were SO DANG FAST.. it was a combination of Placement.. spin... confusion... 1 of the hardest serves ever to read before it came off the racket

[@olaraay]

but if you break it down he wasn't really *THAT* dominant in slams compared to say like the Big 3 1993- 2 1994- 2 1995- 2 1996- 1 1997- 2 1998- 1

[@JustMe-er9ve]

The number 1 position requires great tennis throughout the year not just for 2 weeks every now and then

[@ChampionRogerFederer]

Having won all nine of the ATP Tour Masters 1000 tournaments is Djokovic's greatest achievement for me (especially as he competed in an era with Goat of clay). That record Djokovic stands alone!

[@innosanto]

@@olaraay slams don't show the truth. He was super dominant if you watched those years. People don't follow the sport I think. Players didn't choose all slams to go to those days they had chosen ones. The game has changed. Many things have changed. This is why taking numbers to judge big 3 is bs. Sampras in many aspects of the game and overall could be the goat still. I know people who follow the sport and tell me no one has been as dominant since. Sampras got super bored after 6 years at 29 and stopped training at 29. Then after 1.5 years of no training and a back injury that he really didn't see point at that point to play the sport and do all the added stuff to go back to form but also becasue he felt that since child it was all tennis, he got the old coach back for a month in 2002 for that us open and then changed stuff and did other stuff.

[@iamdalibor]

@@ChampionRogerFederer He actually did it twice which is an insane feat like Sampras staying number 1 for 6 years in a row. Doubt either record will be broken for a loooong time. That's the edge djo has against fed/Nadal.

It cost him a little too much I daresay. I think he really slowed down results wise year around after 98, and mentally got burnt out from it. Might have played until mid 2000s otherwise and won a handful more slams, but regardless that's the one record he set that won't be broken anytime soon.

[@pot_kivach160]

Beyond a doubt, Novak is mentally the toughest sportsman ever! Playing and WNNING against the crowds most of his biggest matches, particularly when fighting for trophies - requires a mental giant. Novak’s ability to turn adversary into his advantage is unheard of. “When they chant Roger, Roger, I hear Novak, Novak” is probably the biggest statement in sports! He takes crowds animosity as the source of his energy and use it directly against his opponent!! My goodness!

Rooted for him all the time and watched as many of his matches as I could. Became a big Novak fan around 2012. He’s my current favorite player and I wish nothing but the best for him. Really hope he ends up with the most slam titles before he retires, besting Roger and Rafa.

Novak knows a thing or two about playing against the crowd/fans..

[@pietrpiepir6444]

Pete and Novak have a LOT in common as players. Both have/had the best single shot in the game at their times - Pete w/the serve, Novak with the return - and both were not crowd favorites and had to fight through that, though Pete didn't seem to really care that much if the crowd liked him or not which I think helped him immensely with stress. Novak sometimes invites undue stress on himself because he wants the crowd's acceptance.

When was this recorded? Pete is wrong saying Novak is about to get to 6yrs as No 1. I’m sure Nadal ended last season as No 1

[@perezcross2785]

Loved watching this. As an American I don't think I see enough of Pete around the game (on TV). Maybe because he is still a generation behind Roger et al. Nonetheless it is still good to see him here. My only other comment on this is, could someone be a buddy a get him a trim and shave for his close ups?

@Penelope only 1 person infected? Um, no, you’re wrong! As for the rest, well promoting pseudoscience is just ridiculous when you’re supposed to be a role model and world class athlete, it’s just embarrassing to the sport when he spouts his pseudoscience nonsense, and actually if you look at the replay he knew exactly where the ball was going when he hit the line judge because he was looking that way, however intent or not he intended to smack the ball and he did so earlier in that match too because he couldn’t control his temper! You Novax glory supporters are ridiculous, defending the indefensible!!!

Lifetime records -> consecutive records! Why?! Because former reward longevity, which combines many factors including opposition/competition (Sampras didn’t have Nadal/Federer level threats, so he didn’t have to worry! Lol And Agassi didn’t care for the rankings until much later in his career so…)

It is funny because I always dislike Agassi so much mostly because of his attitude but when he finished his tennis career and I watched his classic matches with Sampras Safin Becker Federer Kafelnikov and others and I just realized how good he really was...His game was simply flawless when he was in his zoom..When I look at the new generation of the players with big serve and waiting for return ball 20 feets behind baseline I wish he was back to give some lessons to the youngsters.

[@rmmm8666]

[@SJ-di5zu]

@@narcyznarcyz-uv4td I feel like Agassi’s game would translate so well to the modern day. He was probably the 3rd best baseline player of all time behind only Nadal and Djokovic and just barely in front of Federer. I disagree with you on the “these kids need to stop standing 20 feet behind the baseline” though. It doesn’t work for everyone, but for very strong players like Thiem Nadal or Wawrinka it’s an incredibly effective strategy. They just get to hit the ball so hard off the return. Fun fact: Nadal is statistically the 2nd best of all time at breaking serve, ahead of Djokovic, Murray and Agassi.
