All-time tennis records – men's singles


All-time tennis records – men's singles, covers the period from 1877 to present.
The first event to go "Open" started on 22 April 1968, at The West Hants Club in Bournemouth, England. The first Grand Slam tournament to do so was the 1968 French Open, starting on 27 May.

Analysis of records

Today, the ultimate pursuit in tennis is to win the Grand Slam; winning all four Grand Slam events in the same calendar year. In 1982, the International Tennis Federation broadened the definition of the Grand Slam as meaning any four straight Major victories, including the ones spanning two calendar years that became known as the non-calendar year Grand Slam, though it later reversed its definition.
In the history of men's tennis, only two players have won the calendar Grand Slam, Don Budge and Rod Laver. Budge remains the sole player to have won six Majors in a row. In the Open Era, only one player has achieved the non-calendar year Grand Slam, Novak Djokovic. This is followed by a career Grand Slam, a feat achieved by a player winning each of the Majors during their career, which eight players have done. Winning just one of these Major events in a year is a sought-after achievement but winning all four or more consecutively, if we apply Prochnow's analysis retrospectively in Budge's case, transforms a player into a legend.
When we reflect on the modern era of the sport, tennis has clear separations during its history, such as the first official Majors sanctioned by the world governing body of tennis its separate tours, the eligibility to compete at Grand Slam Majors or the surface aspects of the tournaments. In 1913, the ILTF created its first tennis Majors, three world championship events that were abolished by 1923. In the history of those early Majors, only one player won all three in the same year, Anthony Wilding, arguably the first world champion. In 1927, the men's game was separated, leading to the creation of the Pro Slam Majors. During a period of 40 years, only two players achieved the calendar Pro Grand Slam in the history of the professional tour, Ken Rosewall and Laver. Prior to 1968, only amateurs could enter the Grand Slam tournaments. This was changed in 1968, after which both professionals and amateurs could compete for the tennis Majors.
There are also several other facets to take into consideration in defining great tennis players, such as winning all calendar year Majors consecutively on offer at the time on three different surfaces. Three players achieved this distinction between 1913 and 1967, Wilding, Rosewall and Laver. Only those same three players did so not only by surface, but also different environments. When the Professional Majors were abolished in 1967, the Grand Slam Majors were still only being played on two exclusive surfaces, grass and clay. In 1978, the US Open switched surface to a hardcourt thus re-creating a third unique surface. This is arguably the best date in defining the beginning of the Modern Era of tennis. In this new Modern Era, only one player has won all four Majors in a row. Only one other player has achieved the new term, a "Surface Slam", winning three consecutive Majors on three distinct surfaces, that being Rafael Nadal in 2010. To have accomplished any of these feats in a group of tournaments originating over 100 years ago underscores the degree of difficulty involved.
These are some of the important records since the start of the first Grand Slam tournament held at The Wimbledon Championships. All statistics are based on data provided by the ATP Tour website, the ITF and other available sources, even if this isn't a complete list due to the time period involved.
