A brief look at Lindsey Vonn's GOAT controversy

Lindsey Vonn recently posted a picture on X with tennis legend Roger Federer as they both went skiing on the slopes of Switzerland last month. She suggested that Roger Federer is the GOAT.

However, this statement sparked a lot of controversy among tennis fans who suggested that statistically, Novak Djokovic is the GOAT. Defending herself, the 39-year-old Olympic gold medal-winning Alpine skier, posted a clarification on what she meant.

"GOAT or greatest of all time is a subjective title. What makes someone great? Is it statistics? Is it records? Is it impact? Is it character? Is it all of the above? People have differences of opinion and that’s OK. My goat might not be your goat and there will always be a debate but opinions are just that, opinions, and everyone is entitled to them," she wrote.

A few weeks after the controversy, Vonn posted a picture with Djokovic and referred to him as the 'GOAT' as well. The American's hilarious take on the matter cooled down the Serb's fans to an extent.
