Who won the most Grand Slams in history?: Winning a Grand Slam is regarded as one of the factors that scale a tennis player’s greatness. And the person who wins it the most naturally comes to the GOAT conversation because it is not a cakewalk in tennis. Only players who are talented, determined, and consistent throughout can achieve Grand Slams. Today we are going to figure out who the players are who took home the most Grand Slams.
What are Grand Slams?
A Grand Slam is winning all four major tournaments in a year. If a player wins all four majors consecutively but not within a calendar year, they would achieve a non-calendar-year Grand Slam. Winning the four majors at any point in their careers is called ‘career Grand Slams’.
The four Grand Slam tournaments are:
- Australian Open (in January)
- French Open (in late May to early June)
- Wimbledon (late June to early July)
- US Open (August to early September)

List of Men with the most Grand Slam singles titles
If you ask who the GOAT is in tennis, people will have different opinions. But the race for having the most Grand Slams seems almost settled now among men’s singles. Once, Pete Sampras was the ruler on the list. Then the golden boy from Switzerland, Roger Federer, took over. He seemed like no one would ever surpass him, but the Spaniard Rafael Nadal came into the picture. Their rivalry is one of the best in the sport of tennis. Federer retired in September 2022, and the legend had 20 Grand Slams on his name.

Djokovic overcame Nadal in the 2023 French Open to win his 23rd Grand Slam. He continued to win one more to take the score to 24 by winning the US Open in 2023.
