When I was a kid, I used to play tennis on the rusty concrete court around the corner from our place. My friends and I spent countless hours there, which is why the sport has always stayed close to my heart—and remains the only one I truly enjoy watching.

This week, I’ve been following the Australian Open, which is still ongoing, and there have already been some great matches. That got me thinking about how dominance in tennis is measured over time. Many people agree that Djokovic sits at the top when it comes to total Grand Slam titles, but it made me curious about how those wins are distributed across each major. The table below summarizes that breakdown.

What stands out from the table is the contrast in geographic dominance between the two ATP and WTA tours. The women’s records are overwhelmingly held by American players across all four Grand Slams, while the men’s side is largely defined by European dominance.
