John McEnroe has heaped praise on Serena Williams and has equated her stature to the likes of Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan and Tom Brady. Williams has been a hot topic in the tennis world ever since she announced her plans to retire from the sport. She's set to hang up her racquet after dominating the women's circuit for more than 20 years with 73 singles and 23 doubles titles to her name. Seven-time Grand Slam champion McEnroe stated that the 40-year-old is well and truly one of the Great Of All Time (GOAT) athletes, not just in tennis but across all sports. “That all you need to say about Serena is that she’s put herself in that pantheon of GOATs. She’s up there with Billie Jean King. You mentioned Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady. That’s where Serena is,’’ McEnroe told New York Post. Williams is currently in New York gearing up for the US Open, which begins on August 29. It's expected to be the final tournament of her illustrious career and expectations are running high. Despite not being at her dominant best, McEnroe believes that she should not be written off just yet, especially with the buoyant home support behind her. "Depends on the crowd. Sometimes when you’re not playing well you sort of feel like the crowd doesn’t get you’re struggling. It depends on how she reacts to that if things aren’t going well or the way she anticipates," he said.
