C) Novak Djokovic

D) Andy Murray

Answer: Rafael Nadal

Rafael Nadal Parera, a Spanish tennis player, was born on June 3, 1986. The Association of Tennis Professionals has him currently rated third in the world in singles. He has held the top spot in the world rankings for 209 weeks and five times at the end of the year. Nadal holds the record for the most Grand Slam men’s singles victories with 22, including a record 14 at the French Open. He has 92 ATP singles titles under his belt, including 36 Masters titles, 63 of which he has won on clay. Only two men—including Nadal—have achieved the Career Golden Slam in singles. The longest winning streak in the Open Era has been his 81 straight victories on clay.

The Big Three—Nadal, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic—have dominated men’s tennis for more than 10 years and are regarded by some as the three most accomplished male tennis players of all time. Before turning 20, Nadal won 16 victories in the start of his professional career, including his first French Open and six Masters events, making him one of the most successful youths in ATP Tour history. After defeating Federer in a historic Wimbledon final, Nadal won his first major match on a surface other than clay in 2008, becoming the world’s top player for the first time. He backed up his victory at the 2008 Beijing Olympics with an Olympic singles gold. When Nadal defeated Djokovic in the 2010 US Open final, he was only 24 years old. He also made history by being the first man to win a major on each of the three surfaces (hard, grass, and clay) in the same year (Surface Slam).

Nadal holds the record for winning the most Grand Slams in their career.
