'No debate' Djokovic is greatest, says former Wimbledon champion Goran Ivanisevic

LONDON: Goran Ivanisevic insisted Sunday there is “no debate” that Novak Djokovic is the greatest player of all time.
Djokovic won a record-equalling 20th Grand Slam title and sixth Wimbledon on Sunday with a 6-7 (4/7), 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 victory over Italy’s Matteo Berrettini.
The world number one has now moved level on 20 majors with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.
If he wins a fourth US Open in September, he will become the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to complete the calendar Grand Slam and just the third in history.
“For me Novak is the best ever. He’s writing history. He’s going to do it in US Open. I strongly believe he’s going to do it, he’s going to win all four in one year. Then I think story’s over,” said Ivanisevic, one of the world number one’s coaches and a former Wimbledon champion.
