Consecutive years with at least one Grand Slam title[edit]
We should include back this table (deleted sometime in mid-april 2021) for analysing career spans with consistent level of success. All players have some off-seasons, but keeping high level year after year to win a major is a significant achievement showing discipline, mental fortitude, consistency - key elements of great tennis players.
Most consecutive years with at least one Grand Slam title[edit]
Years | Span | Player(s) |
---|---|---|
10 | 2005–2014 | Rafael Nadal |
8 | 1974–1981 | Björn Borg |

- It's kind of weak but it really doesn't belong here. Maybe at List of Grand Slam–related tennis records or All-time tennis records – Men's singles. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:06, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
- This chart existed in all-time article a few years back before the revamped cleaned up version, if my memory serves me right. It's been awhile since I've delved into said article in more depth. I say, put the chart in the all-time article. Putting it in the slam records article would open up a whole new can of worms, wherein you'd be giving the option to add more akin records in the list. Whilst I am an advocate of slam related records, the aforementioned table fits better in the all-time article. @Fyunck(click):, which one you think'd be more pertinent the above chart in: slam records or all-time article?

- I'm not totally sold that we need it, and I'm not sure which article would be best. You made good points. Fyunck(click) (talk) 08:53, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
