I feel Nadal would be the undisputed GOAT by now if not for these factors:
1. Had to deal with grassGOAT/ overall GOAT in prime
2. Had to deal with PeakVAK
3. WTF always played on his least favorite surface, would have won 6+ if played on clay
4. Hindered by knee injuries and other ailments, many missed slam opportunities
5. Time violation rule has made it harder on him, if he could have 52 seconds between points, he would have won more slams.
6. too many masters played on hard court. If more on clay, he would have more weeks at no1 than Fed and Eggvak.
7. Hair loss has caused loss of confidence. If he had beautiful hair like Fed, he could dominate with aplomb.
Discuss.
