Grand Slam Match Wins Over a Grand Slam Champion at the Time of Match - Federer/Nadal/Djokovic Comparison

For example: Federer defeated Murray at 2012 Wimbledon, but Murray at the time was not a Grand Slam champion

Federer - 51 (15 at Australian, 5 at French, 19 at Wimbledon, and 12 at US Open)

Djokovic - 41 (12 at Australian, 7 at French, 11 at Wimbledon, and 11 at US Open)

Nadal - 33 (4 at Australian, 20 at French, 4 at Wimbledon, and 5 at US Open)

Sampras - 29 (5 at Australian, 2 at French, 9 at Wimbledon, and 13 at US Open)

This is a useless stat that adds not much

Eg. Having victory over a Murray post hip surgery. What is the point of this stat. Not at all.

Interesting stat. I guess we file this trivia in the "Strength of Draw -- Miscellaneous" category.

Sampras did fairly well despite retiring early by Big 3 standards. For this kind of stat, it helps to have a lot of guys running around with slam titles. For instance, Chang won the FO at 17. After that, everyone who beat the guy at a slam scored a point in this contest.
