    Larry: Federer and Djokovic are your toughest? What about Murray and Nadal?
    John: Never beat them before so i don't know

    8-0 vs Andy Murray, that sure sounds like a tough opponent John 🤔.

      Yes, strange that both Nadal and Murray are not his toughest opponents, when he's never beaten them. At least he didn't say James Ward 🤔

    Toughest isn’t necessarily the guy you also lose to. It can be the person that makes you most uncomfortable and you are not sure how to play against. Kyrgios said something similar about Federer making you feel bad on court.

    • @reksfoleur859
      @reksfoleur859 6 років тому +6

      not necessarily, it may be the case that he feels (for him) that even though he already has beaten them (Novak & Federer); those times he lost to them, it was utter losses, they were playing to good for him even more so than playing against the likes of Nadal or Murray to whom he always lost, but maybe not as hard.. (just assuming here)

    • @OmgaduGuduru

    Uhmm... "thanks" for leaving Rafa Nadal out, he beat you on 7-1 ratio (88% of the times). Roger Federer beat you only 80% of the times (8 wins for roger and 2 for John Isner). Novak has a ratio of 82% (he beat you 9 times , you beat him 2 times) so at the end of the day Rafa is the one that beat you the most and you left him out... I see..we see.

      that is because most of Claydal's win against Isner came on clay court where Isner's serves obviously do not have an advantage. Almost all of Novak's wins came in hard against Isner - where Isner, despite having a chance, was outplayed.

    His real toughest opponent is the one he could never beat: Nadal 7-0..... And Murray is probably his 2nd toughest opponent, cause he could only beat his new diminished version, but before Andy´s hip problem he was 8-0 vs him
