McEnroe back Djokovic to overhaul Federer’s Grand Slam record

John McEnroe, the seven-time Grand Slam winner, is backing Novak Djokovic to beat Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal’s record of major titles. Federer has 20 Grand Slams, while Nadal has 19 titles. The Serb currently has 16 Grand Slams. "At the end of the year it would obviously Rafa or Roger but if you ask as a betting man I’d probably lean towards Novak," he told Eurosport. "If he stays healthy over the next couple of years you could see him winning a couple each year and he’ll be there and then you have to wonder whether Roger could win another one and whether or not anyone will ever beat Rafa at the French. "You would think what we’ve been watching in the last couple of years that right now it still looks very likely that Rafa is going to win another French, at least one, and could pull off something else and that could put him past Roger and potentially this year if he stays healthy."
