FEDERER, NADAL & DJOKOVIC REINED MEN'S TENNIS FOR 20+ YEARS

Watch: Big 3's Grand Slam Championship Points

2024 is the first year since mid-2003 that none of the Big Three made into a grand slam final two events in a row.

  • Djokovic made to finals 36 times, won 24 titles; made all four finals in 3 years (2023, 2021, 2015).
  • Federer made to finals 32 times, won 20 titles; made all four finals in 2 years (2009, 2007).
  • Nadal made to finals 31 times, won 22 titles.

They won 66 grand slams combined. The longest appearance streak in slam finals by at least one of them stretched for 38 consecutive events, or almost 10 years (Roland-Garros 2005 to Wimbledon 2014).

Here below are a round-up of all the match points of major finals when at least one of the 3 played:

  • This, below, is one of my favorite couple of points, when Roger came so close to finishing off Novak and winning his grand slam title #21 (sorry Federer fans). If Roger served that tennis ball one inch higher and cleared the net, he could have fired an ace as Novak was guess in the wrong direction. Somehow, Novak managed to win the match even though he was an underdog for the majority of the match.
