goat

with serena's wimbledon 2010 win, her 13th slam, debate on who is the greatest ever female tennis player rages on. jon wertheim's article suggested that serena can be ranked higher than graf, navratilova, court and evert, making her the greatest {player} of all time (GOAT). serena's by far the best among her batchmates but i think she still has a lot to achieve to match the four players. steve tignor sums it up with this line:

"You can’t penalize Graf and Navratilova for not making themselves good enough in their primes to beat a hypothetical future opponent."
