ATP Stars Debate the ‘GMOAT’ of Music
The ‘GMOAT’ of Men’s Tennis: A Musical Debate
In the realm of men’s tennis, where fierce competition and athleticism reign supreme, a recent “quick question” posed to ATP stars has sparked a lively debate: who is the “Greatest Musician or Band of All Time” (GMOAT)?
The consensus among the players is that there is no definitive answer. The Beatles and Jon Bon Jovi emerged as the most popular choices, each garnering two votes from the likes of Andy Murray and Camerone Norrie. However, a diverse array of other artists and bands were also mentioned, reflecting the eclectic musical tastes of the tennis stars.
Jannik Sinner opted for the soulful sounds of Seal, while Andrey Rublev surprised many with his choice of Mötley Crüe. Stefanos Tsitsipas, known for his unconventional style, chose Coldplay, while Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Alex de Minaur went for Avicii and Oasis, respectively.
Grigor Dimitrov took a unique approach, choosing The Weeknd as his favorite individual artist and The Backstreet Boys as his preferred group. The video concludes with a cameo from Jon Bon Jovi himself, who breaks the tie in a humorous fashion.
The “GMOAT” debate highlights the diverse musical preferences of the ATP stars, showcasing their personalities beyond the tennis court. It also serves as a reminder that music, like sports, can evoke passion, inspire creativity, and bring people together.
