Mailbag: Is Novak Djokovic Underappreciated?

• Our most recent podcast guest is Kelsey Anderson, who speaks on the experience of watching her husband beat Roger Federer, win a 26-24 fifth set and then play a Wimbledon final.

• Next up on said podcast: the ascendant 19-year-old Stefanos Tsitsipas, tennis’ Greek Freak.

Jon, I’m likely one of those rare agnostics who has equal amounts of love for Federer, Nadal and Djokovic. What’s surprising to me is how little relative love Novak gets. He’s a fierce competitor with incredible skills (like Fed and Nadal). He’s won 13 Grand Slams and is the only player who holds a winning record against Rafa.
