Rafael Nadal – (410)  

Rafael Nadal finished his career with a 410–90 (82%) record in the ATP 1000, which equates to 36 titles. Considering his reputation as the ‘King of Clay’, his first and last titles were on his favourite surface. The first Masters title came in Monte-Carlo (2005), while the last was in Rome (2021).

Three events accounted for a majority of Nadal’s wins at the ATP-1000 level – Monte-Carlo (73), Rome (70), and finally Madrid (59). The three venues also yielded 26 of the Spaniard’s 36 ATP 1000 trophies.
