Recently, at an interview, Gilles Muller appreciated Roger Federer’s contribution to the sport. He said that “If we look at the numbers and the Grand Slams, now it’s Rafael. To be completely honest, for me Roger Federer is above all. I think that he raised tennis to a higher level, made it more popular, the prize funds are now this big largely because of him. I think the way he played was also spectacular, the most beautiful of all – he made every shot look easy, it was special to watch him“.

He also claimed that “Novak is also a spectacular tennis player and I think he will end up with the most Grand Slam titles, unless something unexpected happens – if everything goes well physically, he will play for a few more years. It would be easiest to look at the numbers, but when we take everything into account, I would put Roger above Rafael and Novak“.
