How the record has evolved
The all-time Grand Slam record has changed hands several times across tennis history, reflecting the sport's evolution from amateur competition to the modern professional era.
1920s
Bill Tilden dominates with 10 Grand Slams, including 7 US Opens. He is widely regarded as the first global tennis superstar.
1960s
Roy Emerson sets the record at 12 Grand Slams, a mark that stands for over 30 years. His six Australian Open titles remain a joint record.
2000
Pete Sampras breaks Emerson's record, finishing his career with 14 Grand Slams โ a benchmark that defines the GOAT debate for the next decade.
2009
Roger Federer surpasses Sampras at Wimbledon to reach 15 Grand Slams, widely hailed as the greatest player of all time at the time.
2020
Rafael Nadal ties Federer at 20 Grand Slams with his 13th French Open title. The record becomes a three-way race.
2023
Novak Djokovic reaches 24 Grand Slams โ the outright all-time men's record โ and continues competing at the elite level.
