Former world No. 2, and two-time French Open finalist, Spaniard Alex Corretja believes that the period when Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal led men`s tennis was exceptional. He drew a comparison between the era of the `Big Three` and the current situation in the sport.
“The era of absolute dominance of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic was illogical,” Corretja stated. “What happened before was extraordinary, and what is happening now is normal. There will always be players who stand out more, but being on the same level is more challenging.”
He added, “Nowadays, there are more distractions. Previously, we only thought about the game, but today there are many more concerns that can distract players,” as quoted by Eurosport.es.
