Top 10 men's singles players with longest winning streak in Grand Slams

Novak Djokovic’s 30-match Grand Slam winning streak is the longest in the Open Era.

Winning multiple Grand Slams in tennis is a testament to a player’s versatility and flexibility across different surfaces and conditions. Such consistency is extremely rare, and here we deep dive into a rare list of elite players who have stamped their authority at the highest level.

Andre Agassi – 18 matches (1994 US Open to 1995 French Open)

Andre Agassi’s 18-match Grand Slam win streak marked a renaissance in his career. He won the US Open in 1994 and then the Australian Open in 1995, demonstrating his adaptability to different surfaces. Agassi’s run ended at Roland Garros, but his shot-making flair and mental resilience during this period re-established him as one of the sport’s biggest stars.

Jannik Sinner – 19 matches (2024 US Open to 2025 Roland Garros)

Jannik Sinner’s streak in 2025 began with his breakthrough at the 2024 US Open, where he claimed his maiden major. He has since powered through the Australian Open and into the late rounds at Roland Garros 2025, defeating top seeds with his fearless baseline game.

The Italian’s blitz was halted by a Carlos Alcaraz special, who came back from two sets down to win the final in Paris.

John McEnroe – 20 matches (1981 Wimbledon to 1982 Wimbledon)

John McEnroe’s 20-match Grand Slam streak began with his 1981 Wimbledon title, where his touch and volleying were second to none. He followed up with a US Open win and deep runs in Australia.

The American’s ability to combine artistry with aggression made his campaign memorable, and it spanned a period when he was the game’s most compelling figure.

Bjorn Borg – 20 matches (1978 French Open to 1978 US Open)

Bjorn Borg’s 20-match streak in 1978 began with his French Open win and continued through Wimbledon, where he was nearly unbeatable on grass. His baseline consistency and mental strength were legendary, and he routinely dismantled opponents with his heavy topspin and cool under pressure. The streak ended at the US Open, but Borg’s run that summer remains one of the sport’s most iconic.

Rafael Nadal – 25 matches (2010 French Open to 2011 Australian Open)

Rafael Nadal’s 25-match streak showcased his clay-court supremacy and adaptability. It began with his 2010 Roland Garros triumph, continued with victories at Wimbledon and the US Open, and ended at the 2011 Australian Open quarterfinals.

Nadal became the first man in the Open Era to win the French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open in the same year. The Spaniard extended his dominance in the sport, with splendid performances on the hard courts of Flushing Meadows, particularly in his epic US Open final win over Djokovic.

Pete Sampras – 25 matches (1993 Wimbledon to 1994 French Open)

Pete Sampras’s streak started at Wimbledon 1993, where his serve-and-volley game was untouchable. He then swept the US Open and Australian Open, displaying his dominance on fast courts.

Sampras’s run ended at the 1994 French Open, a surface that always challenged him, but the American’s streak included some of the most commanding performances of his career, especially at Wimbledon, where he holds the record for most titles by a man after Federer.

Jimmy Connors – 25 matches (1974 Australian Open to 1975 Australian Open)

Jimmy Connors’s 25-match Grand Slam streak began with his 1974 Australian Open win and included victories at Wimbledon and the US Open that same year. The American’s aggressive baseline play and fiery demeanor powered him through a season that saw him win three of the four majors.

Roger Federer – 27 matches (2005 Wimbledon to 2006 French Open)

Roger Federer’s 27-match streak stretched from Wimbledon 2005 through the 2006 French Open final. He won his fourth consecutive Wimbledon, the US Open in 2005, then the Australian Open in 2006, and reached the Roland Garros final for the first time, but lost to Nadal.

Federer’s run was marked by his effortless shot-making and dominance on both grass and hard courts, and it was this period that established the Big 2’s presence, with Djokovic joining the party in a few years.

Rod Laver – 29 matches (1969 Australian Open to 1970 Wimbledon)

Rod Laver’s streak came as he completed the calendar-year Grand Slam in 1969, the only man to do so in the Open Era. At 30, he swept all four majors—Australian, French, Wimbledon, and US Open, thereby displaying his all-court mastery.

The Australian’s heroics included epic battles against the likes of Ken Rosewall and Tony Roche, and his versatility across grass and clay was unmatched. A tribute to his legacy is the fact that the premier stadium in Melbourne, which hosts the Australian Open, is named after Laver.

Novak Djokovic – 30 matches (2015 Wimbledon to 2016 Wimbledon)

Novak Djokovic’s 30-match Grand Slam win streak is the longest in the Open Era, spanning four majors and culminating in his 2016 French Open triumph, which completed his career Grand Slam and the rare non-calendar year Grand Slam.

During this run, he defeated legends like Federer, Murray, and Nadal, often with clinical efficiency. The Serbian’s dominance was so complete that he won three out of the four slams four times in a year. His streak finally ended at Wimbledon 2016, but the period remains a defining chapter in modern tennis.
