List of Grand Slam men's singles champions
Throughout its history, many changes in the Grand Slam tennis tournaments have affected the number of titles won by various players. These have included the opening of the French national championships to international players in 1925, the elimination of the challenge round in 1922, and the admission of professional players in 1968 (the start of the Open Era).[1][2]
All of these tournaments have been listed based on the modern definition of a tennis major, rather than when they were officially recognized by the ILTF. The Grand Slam tournaments are the annual four major tennis events played in the Open Era, which began in 1968, superseding the Amateur Era. The Australian and U.S. tournaments were officially recognized by the ILTF in 1924, and the French Championships followed a year later in 1925 when it became open to all international players. The United States Lawn Tennis Association (USLTA) had several grievances with the ILTF and refused to join when it was formed in 1913.[3][4][5][6]
From 1913 to 1923, there were three official championships recognized by the ILTF:
- World Grass Court Championships – Wimbledon.
- World Hard Court Championships, held in Paris on clay courts.
- World Covered Court Championships, held in Europe on an indoor wood surface.
During that same time period the USLTA recognized the U.S. National Championships
- U.S. National Championships, held in New York on grass.
Rafael Nadal has won an all-time men's record (tied with Novak Djokovic) of 22 major singles titles, including an all-time record of 14 French Open titles, the most at a single Grand Slam tournament in tennis history. He is the second man in the Open Era to complete multiple Career Grand Slams (2022).

Novak Djokovic is the only man in history to be the reigning champion of all four majors at once across three different surfaces (2016), and the first in the Open Era to complete multiple Career Grand Slams (2021). He holds the all-time records of 22 major singles titles (tied with Rafael Nadal) and 10 Australian Open titles.

Roger Federer holds an all-time record of eight Wimbledon titles. Federer held the record for most men's major singles titles for 14 years (2009–2022) until he was surpassed by Nadal and later Djokovic.
Bill Tilden won 10 major singles titles in the 1920s, including an all-time record of seven US Open titles.
Don Budge is the only man to have won six consecutive major singles titles, from Wimbledon 1937 to U.S. Championships 1938, and the first player ever to complete a Grand Slam (1938).

Roy Emerson was the first man in history to win each major title twice (1967), and the only man to have completed a Career Grand Slam in both singles and doubles.
Rod Laver is the only man to complete a Grand Slam more than once in his career, in 1962 as an amateur and in 1969 as a professional.
Pete Sampras won 14 major singles titles in his career, including seven titles at Wimbledon. Both tallies were all-time records at the time of his retirement in 2002, until being surpassed by Roger Federer in 2009 and 2017, respectively.
Andre Agassi was the first man to complete a Career Grand Slam across three different surfaces (1999), and the first to win a Career Golden Slam (winning the four majors and an Olympic gold medal in singles).
