Grand Slam Champions

The Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon and US Open are the four Grand Slam tournaments. Winning the title at each major in the same year is known as the “Grand Slam”. Three women have completed the singles Grand Slam in a calendar year: 1953 – Maureen Connolly; 1970 – Margaret Court; 1988 – Stefanie Graf.

A further seven women have won each Grand Slam singles title at least once in their careers (known as the career Grand Slam): Doris Hart, Shirley Fry, Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova, with Navratilova (1983-84) and Williams (2002-03, 2014-15) holding all four titles at the same time.

Australia’s Margaret Court holds the record for all-time Grand Slam singles titles (men or women) with 24 titles, ahead of Serena Williams, who holds the Open Era record with 23 Grand Slam singles titles.

In the Open Era, eight women have won three of the four Grand Slam titles: Lindsay Davenport, Evonne Goolagong Cawley, Justine Henin, Martina Hingis, Angelique Kerber, Hana Mandlikova, Monica Seles and Virginia Wade.

Olympic Games

Tennis returned to the Olympic Games as a medal sport at Seoul in 1988, after a 64-year absence. The 2016 Olympic Tennis Event took place on hardcourts in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. Monica Puig of Puerto Rico captured the first-ever gold medal for Puerto Rico (any sport), defeating three Grand Slam winners (Petra Kvitova, Garbiñe Muguruza and Angelique Kerber) en route to the Olympic title.

At Rio, Venus Williams competed at the Olympics for the fifth time in her career, joining Arantxa Sánchez Vicario (ESP) as the only women who have competed in the Olympics five times. As a result of winning silver in mixed doubles with Rajeev Ram, Venus added a fifth Olympic medal to her collection. Four women have won four or more medals at the Olympics: Kathleen McKane (1 gold, 2 silver, 2 bronze), Aranxta Sánchez Vicario (2 silver, 2 bronze), Serena Williams (4 gold) and Venus Williams (4 gold, 1 silver).

At London in 2012, Serena won gold medals in singles and doubles, joining sister Venus (2000 Sydney) and Helen Wills (1924 Paris) as the only women to win a gold medal in both singles and doubles in the same year at the Olympics.
