Celebrity tennis enthusiast Lindsey Vonn has reignited the “Greatest of All Time” (GOAT) debate, this time expressing her admiration for Novak Djokovic. Vonn, who previously sparked controversy by declaring Roger Federer as the GOAT, took to social media to clarify her stance.
In a recent post, Vonn shared a selfie with Djokovic, accompanied by a caption that read, “Hanging with the [goat emoji], and yes, I do believe he is the goat.” She emphasized that she believes there can be multiple GOATs, but Djokovic’s record-breaking achievements and his skiing abilities earn him the title.
Djokovic’s recent tour of California has included encounters with other celebrities. He and his wife, Jelena, attended an NBA game where they witnessed Nikola Jokic lead the Denver Nuggets to victory over LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. Djokovic also visited the LA Galaxy FC soccer match and trained with the UCLA tennis and football teams.
Djokovic expressed his admiration for both LeBron James and Nikola Jokic, calling them “great” and “amazing,” respectively. Jokic, in turn, praised Djokovic as a role model and a source of national pride for Serbia.
Vonn’s comments and Djokovic’s interactions with other athletes have further fueled the GOAT debate. While some fans may disagree with Vonn’s assessment, her willingness to acknowledge Djokovic’s accomplishments highlights the complexity of the GOAT discussion.
