New page is done, at the moment 66 players 🙂 Perhaps I will be adding 5-10 new surnames daily.
All players who participated in Grand Slam singles finals (the Open era) have been already included to the list. I’ve adopted two particular criteria in the process:
– all singles finalists in Grand Slam events
– all doubles champions in Grand Slam events
203 players at the moment, more to come…
Approximately 425 players in the final eight of grand slam single.
I will probably close the list with less than 320 players.
The list of the best/most notable/interesting players of the Open era is complete. As mentioned above I’ve adopted two objective criteria, all other players have been included according to my subjective choice. Below number of players (347) on the list by nationality:
77 – USA
36 – Australia
27 – Spain
20 – France, Sweden
19 – Argentina
14 – Czech Republik
11 – South Africa, Germany
10 – Italy, Russia
8 – Croatia
7 – Great Britian, Netherlands
5 – Serbia, Chile, Switzerland, Austria
4 – Brazil, Slovakia, India
3 – Israel, Ukraine, Zimbabwe, Belgium
2 – Peru, Uruguay, Ecuador, Belarus, New Zealand, Japan
1 – Senegal, Poland, Latvia, Haiti, Cyprus, Denmark, Hungary, Armenia, Thailand, Norway, Mexico, Paraguay, Finland, Bahamas
“Flo” with his first ATP title joins the list as the third “Mayer”.
We are waiting for Leonardo Mayer.
Granollers added today – he deserves after reaching the last 16 in Paris and breaking into the Top 20.
