This is of course not taking into a lot of factors, so please don't think this thread is "best players" at each slam.
This does not take into account things like consistency, win percentage etc. It's just based on their best results.
Things I have looked at:
- Winners of each slam, separated then by number of times won, then by number of finals, then by number of SFs, then by number of QFs, etc etc.
- Finalists of each slam, separated then by number of finals, then by number of SFs, then by number of QFs etc etc.
The top 10 were filled by this criteria.
Results pre-2010 were not taken into account at all.
