From Jason Gay’s Wall Street Journal review of Rafael Nadal’s French Open Final victory over Roger Federer:

Sunday at Roland Garros, he defeated his elegant nemesis, Roger Federer, a man Nadal charmingly described to tennis gadfly John McEnroe as “the best player of the history.”

The designation “best player of the history” is now officially in play, no?

(“Tennis gadfly John McEnroe”? Really?)
