Six Kings Slam: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has expressed his deep admiration for tennis legends Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic, referring to them as the "three geniuses" of the sport.

As Nadal, 38, prepares for retirement following next month’s Davis Cup finals, Guardiola took a moment to reflect on the trio's dominance, which has defined men's tennis for the past two decades. Together, they have claimed a staggering 66 Grand Slam titles, with Nadal securing 22 of those, including an unmatched 14 French Open victories.
