I think Roger Federer is the best athlete. He's already breaking all the records! He's been in the top spot of the ranking for over 160 weeks, and he won a Grand Slam tournament without losing a single set! The previous records stood for about 30 years! He only needs to win five more tournaments to surpass Pete Sampras in the number of Grand Slam tournament wins. I think that will happen in two years. By the way, who won the final in Dubai: him or Youzhny?

No doubt about it. The best is Michael Schumacher. A legend of Formula One racing.

No questions. Michael Schumacher is the best. A legend of Formula 1 racing.
I had a few questions about this, but since you insist, I won't ask them.
P.S. Federer has a rating of 8370, while Nadal (who is second) has 4470. Feel the difference.

Federer is undoubtedly good; he has practically no weak spots. But anyone who understands tennis will tell you that the rest of the current generation is surprisingly frail. Of course, with such opponents, it's possible to break all records. But whether Federer would have beaten a young Sampras or not is a huge question. It seems to me: yes on courts like Australia, parity at the US Open, and no on grass. And this is taking into account some margin that Roger undoubtedly has, because he simply has no one who forces him to play at 110%.
without a doubt. The best is Michael Schumacher. A legend of royal racing.
Yes, Misha is cool. But don't forget about Rory Byrne. Until he retired and Newey gave up on McLaren, only their cars were winning. And that went on for about 15 years.

Of course, with such opponents, you can break all records. But whether Federer would win against a young Sampras is a huge question. As I think, yes, on courts like the Australian Open, it would be a tie on the US Open, and no on grass. And this is taking into account a certain advantage that Roger undoubtedly has, because there is simply no one for him to play at 110%.

Yes, Misha is cool. But don't forget about Rory Byrne. As long as he wasn't stepping away from the business, and Newey wasn't giving up on McLaren, only their cars were winning. And for about 15 years.
It's a pity that there is no way to gather all the best tennis players of all time and hold a tournament between them. But I would be rooting for Federer. But even in those days, not all tennis players were at Sampras's level. Well, and Agassi. And that's it.

Only Agassi was truly on Sampras's level, but that is already enough, especially since the others were also decent. After all, even the presence of just one practically equal player sharply reduces the number of your victories in major tournaments, especially the Grand Slam series, almost by 2 times, plus it exhausts you mentally and physically. Divide Federer's victories by 2, and what remains?
Watching tennis now is boring, but if another worthy figure appeared, look, records would stop being updated so quickly and everything would be more exciting in general.

Only Agassi was truly on Sampras's level, but even that is enough, especially considering that the others weren't bad either. After all, even having just one player who is practically your equal drastically reduces the number of your victories in major tournaments, especially in the Grand Slam series, by about half, and it also takes a toll on you mentally and physically. Divide Federer's victories by two, and what will remain?
Tennis is boring to watch now, but if another worthy player appeared, the records might stop being updated so quickly, and overall, it would be more interesting.
Well... He doesn't have any close competitors.

Yes, Misha is great. But don't forget about Rory Byrne. As long as he wasn't stepping back from his duties, and Newey wasn't neglecting McLaren, only their cars were winning. And that went on for about 15 years. The crown with the number seven on Michael's head shows that even Fancheo is far behind.

In my opinion, the best in the world is Maradona, or maybe Pele (their names are known to everyone, and among those currently participating in big sports, I would prefer Ronaldinho).

And that went on for about 15 years. Go up to a first-grader and ask him who Schumacher is and who Rory Byrne is. What will the little one answer? Schumacher is good, and without Schumacher, it's bad! And McLaren's engines, although fast, will burn and will continue to burn, which I am very happy about. They will burn under Alonso, HAHAHAHAHAHA! Schumacher is not just the Red Baron; he is the king. Pele is

Schumacher is not just the Red Baron; he is a king.
Pele is the king of football.
Tretiak is the guru of hockey players, and so on.

Michael will return to us... He will be reincarnated in his son!



No, there are simply really great sportsmen, and there are hyped ones. And that's why I like people like Zidane, Ronaldo, and T. Doni – they come from very poor families and managed to achieve world recognition only through their own skill and hard work. And tennis is an aristocratic sport, where a child has their own coach from the age of 6, and this already means that here, not only skill but also the coach's work allows them to develop talent (and if there is no talent, to create it). I don't know much about Formula 1, but Schumacher really made a name for himself... BUT, we still need to give credit to those people who get into sports not because of their parents' connections, but only because of their own skill and perseverance.

I think the best boxers are the Klitschko brothers and Konstantin Dzyu. They are true Titans.

I think Evgeny Plyushchenko deserves that title. Skating on ice like that is something special!
He's not even the best figure skater. He never skated as well as Yagudin did. Yagudin's "Winter" will remain an unsurpassed standard of skill and artistry for male figure skaters for a long time. By the way, please remember how the championship ended, for which the now-retired Yagudin prepared a competitor for Plyushchenko. It's good that he didn't do that again.
