In the current ATP ranking, there are only six players who have won at least one Slam in their career. Winning a Major is the ultimate goal for a tennis player. But now, after many important farewells, the group has significantly reduced in 2024, with the retirements from professional tennis of Rafael Nadal (22-time champion), Andy Murray (3) and Dominic Thiem (1). Let’s see who are the six active men to have won at least one Grand Slam title in their career.
First place for Novak Djokovic, with an abysmal gap on everyone. 24 Major titles for the Serbian champion, with 10 Australian Opens, 3 French Opens, 7 Wimbledon Championships and 4 US Opens. All-time record for the Serbian champion, who won his first title in Australia in 2008 and is now looking for his 25th triumph in Melbourne, where he has already won ten times.
In second place – even though he is only 21 years old – there is Carlos Alcaraz, who has already won 4 Slam titles, with 1 victory at Roland Garros, 2 at Wimbledon and 1 at the US Open. Carlitos will be hunting for the Career Grand Slam in Australia.

Third place for a player who has dropped a lot in the rankings and is number 161 in the world but who does not want to retire: we are talking about Stan Wawrinka, who in 2025 will turn 40 and is a 3-time champion with 1 Australian Open, 1 Roland Garros and 1 US Open in his trophy cabinet. Slams won in full domination of the Big 3. Wawrinka will be on the court at the Australian Open with a wild card.
Then Jannik Sinner with two 2 Majors, current ATP number 1 who won both the Australian Open and the US Open in 2024. The first Italian ever to win in Australia and the first man to win in New York after the women’s success of Flavia Pennetta.
Finally, there are two players both with a Slam title. This is Daniil Medvedev who won a US Open in 2021 in a final that prevented Novak Djokovic from winning the Grand Slam that year. Then there is Marin Cilic, champion again in New York but in 2014 when he beat Roger Federer in the semifinals before overcoming Kei Nishikori in one of the least expected finals in the history of the last 20 years.
