but its 14-8 in Navratilova favour in grand slam matches which matters the most

 

[Vensai]

Nadal-Djokovic for men's open era.
Pre-open era surpasses even that though.

You have to be careful with the Boorg-Connors-McEnroe numbers. I think these are only official (ATP) numbers. In those days they played a lot of invitational events, with big money and highly important. So Borg-Connors is something like 36 or even more, similar to Federer-Nadal.

Vensai, Yes, "Old Man" once stated that Laver and Rosewall met 182 times (99:83 in favour of Laver). That's extraordinary by itself but specially because these two small Aussies are possibly the two GOATs...

But I do know that Tilden and Nüsslein met 300-400 times (Nüsslein leading about 200:150)!
