Can you show overall (including the number of losses) and also maybe best 5 year period and then best 10 year etc...?

Can you show overall (including the number of losses) and also maybe best 5 year period and then best 10 year etc...?

Here is a graph that includes all losses. Is this what you meant by overall?

Example of calculation: In 2002, Federer played 80 ATP matches and lost 22 of them (22/80*100 = 28%).
