Answer:
Djokovic’s popularity versus Federer and Nadal
This question was originally asked during an “ask me anything” Quora Session I hosted. I’ve updated, improved and expanded upon that answer here.
My immediate feeling is that Novak isn’t as popular as Roger or Rafa simply because he’s not them.
Make no mistake, Djokovic is a very likable, popular and respected guy but it’s true that he doesn’t command the same level of international following as Federer or Nadal. At first glance this is all the more puzzling as he’s been the dominant force in tennis over the past few years and has enjoyed greater success than Federer and Nadal.
I bet the above comment is has probably infuriated many Federer and Nadal fans already. It’s interesting how people have their favourites and will emotionally defend them no matter what others say or what the facts point out. He/she is the best, greatest, smartest, etc. and that’s that!
Sports fan psychology is not my strong suit but I suspect it has something to do with in/out group dynamics, social identity and the good feeling fans get when their favourite player wins. Basking in their reflective glory so to speak.
Personally I don’t get too emotional about tennis these days. I see it as it is, a game, a sport for play or entertainment (of course when I was on the tour it felt very different). However, If you ask me about Australian rules football or music I’m very passionate! So it’s easy for me to understand the passion of tennis fans even though I don’t have favourites among the tops guys.
I think one of the reasons Roger Federer is so popular (aside from his immense achievements) is that he’s somewhat old school. He brought the old generation style (mine) into the power era. Combining classic style with the modern technology of power racquets and string, he pulled off shots thought near impossible before. Add impressive athletic abilities and a stoic like poise under pressure and it’s hard to imagine a world where he wouldn’t be as popular as he is.
