Debate on
the best "one sports stat graphic" had tennis fans highlighting the
mind-blowing achievements of
Roger Federer,
Rafael Nadal,
Novak Djokovic, and
Serena Williams. In a social media post by TickPick (a ticket-selling
organization in the U.S.), tennis enthusiasts praised the top tennis legends of
the past decades.
They were
not the only ones mentioned. Some included
Andy Murray in the statistics as
part of the Big-4 alongside Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic. Additionally, the
current world No. 1,
Iga Swiatek, and former Australian tennis player Margaret
Court with her 24 Grand Slam titles, although 15 of them were before the Open
Era, were also featured.
One fan
highlighted the Grand Slam dominance from the 2017 Australian Open to the 2021
US Open, where the Big-3 won 19 out of the 21 Slams in that period, despite all
of them already having at least 15 years of career, showcasing their dominance
over the last 20 years.
“You mean the graphic from 2022 that
finally made me realize why people hate the big 3”
Another fan
highlighted Rafael Nadal's overwhelming statistics at the French Open with over
100 victories and 14 titles in the most significant clay-court tournament. The
Spaniard has accumulated 112 wins with only three defeats, boasting a 97%
winning record, a historic high for a player at the same Grand Slam.
Another fan
asserted that the statistics regarding Margaret Court's number of Grand Slam
titles were not emphasized until Serena Williams threatened to break her
record:
“Before they
moved the goal post because you know why”
