Stan (2014)
Nole (2011)
Nadal (2006)

Few you missed :
Safin in 2005 AO (though Djokovic was a baby then)
Nadal in RG 06, 07, 08.
Berdych in Wimbledon 2010
Nadal in '12 and '14 (beat Fed in AO, Nole in RG)
Wawrinka in AO '14 (unfortunate that Rafa's back had to give out in the final)
Nole in 2019 (beat Rafa at AO and Fed in Wimbly)

Some interesting facts:
Other than Nadal, Berdych is the only player who defeated Fedovic back to back at a slam ('10 WC); Nadal had done that twice ('07 RG, '08 RG).
Other than Djokovic, Delpo is the only player who defeated Fedal back to back at a slam ('09 USO); Djoko had done that once ('11 USO).
Noone has ever beaten Nadalovic back to back at a slam. Fed had a chance at '11 RG (not that close in the F) and at '19 WC (extremely close in the F).

This list is misleading.

You have asked beating 2 guys in the same year just to include people like Murray, that doesn't count much.

Beating 2 members of Big 3 In the Same Slam, only this should be counted.

Djokovic 2011 USO
Nadal 2006 FO
Nadal 2007 FO
Nadal 2008 FO
Del Potro - 2009 USO
Stanimal - 2014 AO
Safin - 2005 AO
Berdych - 2010 W

Including Murray in this list is not right.
Nadal has more opportunities as he has made less semis

Nalbandian in 2003 beat Federer twice if that counts.
Regarding this:
Federer has never beaten Nadal twice at slams in the same year while Djoko has done once ('11 WC+USO).
Federer has beaten Djokovic twice at slams in '07 (AO+USO) while Nadal has done in '07 (RG+WC) and '13 (RG+USO).
Nadal has beaten Federer twice at slams in '08 (RG+WC) while Djoko has done in '11 (AO+USO) and '15 (WC+USO).

Nadal has beaten Federer twice at slams in '08 (RG+WC) while Djoko has done in '11 (AO+USO) and '15 (WC+USO).

Interesting to see that this happened once in each of their primes.

Novak beat Nadal twice in 2011
Nadal beat Novak twice in 2013
Nadal beat Federer twice in 2008

LOL but including Safin 2005 where he beat Novak in his very first appearance there should count? Come on...

When did the big three officially start being recognized as such? 2007 feels a bit early.
The cut-off for being 'one of the big three' should probably be the first major they won, or at least the first major final, so for beating Djoko to count as beating 'one of the big three' earliest would be FO 2008 (Nads) or USO 2007 (Fed)
