ATP figures are composite tour ratings over a 52-week rolling window, updated 14 September 2026. The WTA publishes no composite ratings, so the WTA column shows the closest single measure: service games won, return games won and break points saved (2026 year-to-date, min. 10 matches). Aces per match is directly comparable.
Tennis Records
Fastest Tennis Serve Ever
Sam Groth holds the official ATP-recognised record for the fastest serve in professional tennis, clocking 263 km/h at the 2012 Busan Open Challenger in South Korea. Several higher readings exist but were not recorded under ATP-accepted conditions.
Most Grand Slams Won
Novak Djokovic holds the all-time record for Grand Slam singles titles with 24, ahead of Rafael Nadal (22) and Roger Federer (20). On the women's side, Serena Williams leads with 23, followed by Steffi Graf (22). With Alcaraz, Sinner and Świątek all in their mid-twenties, the records remain very much in play.
