Football - Messi
Tennis - Federer
Cricket - Fack knows, maybe Warne?
Athletics - Bolt
Lionel Messi
Roger Federer
Sachin Tendulkar
Athletics I can't say.....it comes down to preference imo
GOAT's will always be contentious due to various criteria.
So I will revert to the sportsmen who I have enjoyed watching the most in my life time.
Football - George Best
Cricket - Ian Botham
Golf - Phil Mickelson
Tennis - John McEnroe
Darts -Eric Bristowe
Snooker - Alex Higgins
F-1 - Nigel Mansell
Athletics - Sebastian Coe
Football - Maradona
Tennis - Serena Williams / Roger Federer
Cricket - I don't watch that sheet
Athletics - Usain Bolt

Williams in her prime wouldn't stand a chance against any male player on the tour, so I'm not sure you can include her.
Brazilian Ronaldo is nowhere near the conversation of GOAT.
Talent, sure. But those injury’s put him in the Ronaldinho and Kaka bracket.

I get that but it doesn't make her better than Male Tennis players.
Football - Pele
Tennis - Rod Laver
Cricket - Don Bradman (averaged 99.9 in tests)
Athletics - Jessie Owens
Unlike a lot on here, I don`t think Sport was invented in the 21st century.
Like VC, I'll just put people I ahve seen who were the best. GOAT's don't exist imo.
Football... George
Tennis... Borg. He looked and played like a Viking.
Boxing... Ali.
Athletics;;; Coe
Golf...Seve Ballesteros
Snooker... Ronnie

The thread is about the Greatest. She is the Greatest and her 23 slams, show that clearly.

Has to be up there mate. Problem with the modern generation, they don`t think Sport was ever around before they were born. You have to look at any great sportsman over the 150 years or so of competitive sport. No matter it may be a bit faster these days, the sportsmen of 100 years ago were every bit as good as today`s heroes.

Decent.
Its an interesting discussion mind however folk will always have their favourites and wont change their mind for anyone.
My favourite golfer by far was Sevvy but can acknowledge he was not the games greatest
The Jamaican Bobsled Team
Maradonna
Federer
Going Botham due to all rounder
Carl Lewis
However, if you get five minutes read about Max Woosnam.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Woosnam
Among his achievements were winning an Olympic gold and silver in tennis at the 1920 Summer Olympics, winning the doubles at Wimbledon, compiling a 147 break in Snooker, making a century at Lord's Cricket Ground, captaining the British Davis Cup team, captaining Manchester City F.C. finishing ultimately runners-up for the Football League Championship in 1920–21 and captaining the England national football team.
