Grand Slam tournaments

Description of those tournaments

A Grand Slam title is a tennis championship won at one of the four tournaments that make up the tennis Grand Slam. These tournaments, often referred to collectively as "Grand Slam tournaments," are the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.

Currently, Grand Slam tournaments are widely considered the four most prestigious events in the tennis world and, therefore, usually draw the best players. Many argue that results at Grand Slam tournaments are useful for measuring the strength of a singles player or doubles team relative to his, her, or their contemporaries.[citation needed] The following tables, however, are but one indicator of greatness as various factors have skewed the statistics, favoring some players over others. For example, Roy Emerson's titles were won against amateurs while the best players of his time, including Rod Laver, were professional and, therefore, not allowed to play in Grand Slam tournaments. Also, many players in the past did not have the funds or inclination to make long overseas trips to play. For example, Margaret Osborne duPont never played in Australia. World War II also cut short or limited the careers of many, including Don Budge.

Grand Slam tournaments are the only events on the professional tours that include a mixed doubles competition, alongside the men's doubles, women's doubles, and singles events. Main draw play at each Grand Slam tournament lasts for two weeks, with 128 players participating in the first round of the singles competitions.

1The World Hard Court Championships (WHCC), the official clay court world championships, were held in Paris (except for one year in Brussels) beginning in 1912 and lasting through 1923. Unlike the pre-1925 French Championships, the WHCC was open to all nationalities. Therefore, the WHCC is the true forerunner of the open-to-all-nationalities French Championships that began in 1925. For purposes of determining the total number of Grand Slam titles won, the WHCC is used for 1914 and 1920 through 1923 instead of the closed-to-foreigners French Championships for those years.
