Default Which players ended up with more Slam titles than the rest of their generation

For the sake of argument, let's define generations as 91-95, 86-90, 81-85, 76-80 etc. as year of birth.

Who won more slam titles than all his contemporaries together? NO Nadal and Federer, since theoretically, it's too early to tell. I'm more curious about the one's before them like Sampras, or Borg or whatever.

My eternal thanks to whoever maintains that site, very handy!

Whoever maintains that site, doesn't maintain it. Notice that poor Federer and Nadal are short by one slam, maybe even Djokovic.

I know, but other sections are up to date. Perhaps they only update the less important parts at the end of a season.
