List of winners of the Grand Slam tournaments (women singles)
The list of winners of the Grand Slam tournaments in the women's singles lists all of the winners of the four Grand Slam tournaments in tennis - Australian Open , French Open , Wimbledon and US Open - since 1884. In another list, the players are sorted according to the number of wins. The time period in which the athlete won and the number of wins at each tournament is also given. Since the term Grand Slam tournament was first coined in the 1930s, the term “victory in a Grand Slam tournament” is ahistorical for the titles achieved before that time. They were nevertheless included in the rating.
Margaret Court from Australia is the most successful player with 24 Grand Slam titles (all-time) between 1960 and 1973. In the professional era (from 1968) Serena Williams won a total of 23 Grand Slam titles since 1999, followed by Steffi Graf with a total of 22 Grand Slam titles won between 1987 and 1999. Margaret Court won 11 titles. Serena Williams is the most successful player in the professional era, Margaret Court the most successful player overall. Serena Williams is also the most successful active tennis player with her 23 victories since 1999. Ten tennis players have so far managed to win each of the four tournaments. Margaret Court, Steffi Graf, Chris Evert , Martina Navrátilová and Serena Williams were the only ones who were able to win every tournament at least twice, with Steffi Graf winning every tournament at least four times and thus holding the record. All four tournaments in a year, the so-called Grand Slam , winning succeeded so far Steffi Graf (1988, with the Olympic Games , the so-called Golden Slam ), Margaret Court (1970) and Maureen Connolly (1953).
The Open Era began in 1968 with the admission of professional tennis players . The French Open was reserved until 1925 exclusively French and a very limited number of foreign players. The Australian Open was held in January up to and including 1977, then in December. In 1977 the tournament took place twice. In 1986 the event was moved back to January, so that no tournament took place that year.
