I say this as a full on Rafa lifer who forever said Fed's run was partly in result of the week competition. He wins tomorrow and he's the GOAT.

This is absurd. If this is the case, why has the guy consistently gone into the semis and finals of grand slams, even during the era of Djoker, Nadal, and Murray, and has continued to win Master events in his early/mid-30's, at an age when most tennis players are well on the decline and unable to compete with significant results on the pro tour.

If Fed's run was the result of weak competition, then the same should be said of the run of Djoker and Nadal since apparently EVERY one else sucks in this era as the "Big 4" seem to have won everything in the recent years.
