Tennis’ Career Grand Slam Winners, All-Time Men

Roy Emerson (l.) And Rod Laver Are The Only Men’s Tennis Players To Win All Four Majors More Than Once

If we consider just the Open Era – when professionals were invited to play all four tennis majors for the first time in 1968 (Australian Open in 1969) – then only four men have won a career Grand Slam (at least one of every major).

They are Rod Laver, Andre Agassi, and the still active Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Quite an elite group. Nearly 50 years of Open Era tennis and only four players have won all four majors: Australian, French, Wimbledon and U.S.

Not even Ivan Lendl (never won Wimbledon), Jimmy Connors (no French Open), Pete Sampras (no French Open) nor Bjorn Borg (only French Open and Wimbledon wins) can claim a Grand Slam.

If you go back to the very beginnings of all four “tournaments,” another three players make the Grand Slam cut. Check out the all-timers below.
