Roger Federer ? “Boring.” Novak Djokovic? “Boring.” Rafael Nadal? “Very boring.” the short and not very detailed conclusion of Yevgeny Kafelnikov. The Russian gave in December at the Russia TV Interview in which he talked himself into a Rage. To interfere, especially it seems that Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, despite her age, still to the world top of the sport, Yes even dominate. The last Grand Slam winner, was not part of the “Big Three”, it was Stan Wawrinka at the US Open in 2016.

Now Kafelnikov is not as for anyone, the Russian is one of the predecessor of Federer, Djokovic and Nadal, what is the world rank list. In this he was in 1999, during five weeks at number 1 and he also won Grand Slam tournaments, two in number, the French Open in 1996 and the Australian Open in 1999. To do this, he repeated in Sydney 2000 Olympic Gold in singles. Today, the 44-Year-old Vice-President of the Russian tennis Federation.

Federer, and the silver tray

The biggest Problem Kafelnikov with Federer. Why this is boring, he did not reveal, but: “To him there are no hot stories”, enerviert, “as in a Swiss Bank”. And anyway, as a Swiss, this was all served on a silver platter. It is only the men’s tennis, Kafelnikov upset is not a but, there is also a player that doesn’t get lost in the Tirade at Russia TV very well.

Maria Sharapova this is, of all things, a country-woman of Kafelnikov. Or not. “She is a Person with an American passport, living in America and American-style thinking,” he says of the former Olympic champion. He once trained with Sharapova and her Rackets borrowed. To believe that the Russian woman then at the young age in the USA, emigrated to the foot, have him “pissed off.”

by the Way: Against the boring Federer Kafelnikov played in his career, six times and won four games, the last duel winner Federer was 21. Against the equally boring Djokovic and the still duller Nadal, the Russian never played. (red)
