Most Grand Slams Won | All-Time Men’s and Women’s Records

← Back to Tennis Stats & Records

The Grand Slam titles are the most coveted prizes in tennis — the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open. Winning even one is an achievement that defines a career. Winning multiple puts a player in the conversation for the greatest of all time. This page tracks every all-time Grand Slam record across men’s and women’s singles, from the Big Three era to the current generation of Sinner, Alcaraz, Sabalenka, and Swiatek competing for the sport’s biggest prizes.

Men’s Singles: All-Time Grand Slam Titles

The men’s all-time Grand Slam record is defined by the rivalry between Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer — the Big Three who between them won 66 of 82 available Slams between 2003 and 2023. Djokovic holds the all-time record with 24 titles, surpassing Nadal’s 22 in 2023 with a historic 23rd title at the French Open and a 24th at Wimbledon the same year. Pete Sampras, who held the record for over a decade with 14 titles, now sits fourth. The current generation — led by Carlos Alcaraz (4 titles at 22) and Jannik Sinner (3 titles at 24) — is already well positioned to challenge these historical benchmarks over the next decade.

Men’s Grand Slams: Active Players (2026)

The race among active players is being led by the sport’s two young giants — Alcaraz at 4 Slams and Sinner at 3 — while Djokovic, at 38, remains technically active but on a limited schedule. Alexander Zverev, who has reached three Grand Slam finals, remains the most prominent player in the top 10 yet to open his account.

Women’s Singles: All-Time Grand Slam Titles

Margaret Court holds the all-time women’s record with 24 Grand Slam titles, though 13 came before the Open Era began in 1968. In the Open Era, Serena Williams is the benchmark with 23 titles across all four Slams — a record built over two decades and confirmed by her 2023 Australian Open comeback at the age of 41. Steffi Graf’s 22 titles include the 1988 Golden Slam (all four Slams plus Olympic gold), the only time any player has achieved this feat. The current generation is making its mark: Iga Swiatek has four French Open titles and has already joined the all-time top 15, while Aryna Sabalenka’s three consecutive Australian Open titles from 2023 to 2025 place her among the tournament’s greatest champions.

Women’s Grand Slams: Active Players (2026)

The active women’s leaderboard is led by Swiatek (5) and Sabalenka (4), with a group of younger players — Gauff, Rybakina, Keys — still in the early stages of their Slam accumulation. Gauff, at 21, and Rybakina, at 26, both have two titles and the potential to feature on this list for many years to come.

Calendar Grand Slam Achievements

The Calendar Grand Slam — winning all four majors in a single year — is the rarest and most prized achievement in tennis. Only five players have ever achieved it across men’s and women’s singles combined, and no player has done it since Steffi Graf in 1988.

Player Year Notes
Don Budge 1938 First-ever Calendar Grand Slam (men’s singles)
Maureen Connolly 1953 First woman to achieve the Calendar Grand Slam
Rod Laver 1962, 1969 Only man to achieve it twice; 1969 version in the Open Era
Margaret Court 1970 Only woman to complete the Calendar Slam in the Open Era
Steffi Graf 1988 Won all 4 Slams plus Olympic gold — the only “Golden Slam” in history

FAQs

Who has won the most Grand Slams in tennis history?

Novak Djokovic holds the men’s record with 24 Grand Slam singles titles. On the women’s side, Margaret Court holds the all-time record with 24 titles (including 13 pre-Open Era), while Serena Williams leads the Open Era record with 23 Grand Slams.

Who has won the most Wimbledon titles?

Who has the most French Open titles?

Rafael Nadal holds the men’s French Open record with 14 titles — the most by any player at a single Grand Slam tournament in history. On the women’s side, Chris Evert won Roland Garros 7 times, though Iga Swiatek’s four consecutive titles (2022–2024) have her on pace to challenge that record.
