So I dunno if someones already put these stats up somewhere but i haven't seen it anywhere so I'll chuck these up here, first I'll say this is in no way a GOAT thread nor am I insinuating who's the GOAT, GOAT discussions are just silly to me.
During Pete Sampras career, in all of his 14 Grandslam wins, he faced a total of 14 players in Grand Slam finals, there were 6 players that had a Grand Slam title, here's the list, Agassi, Ivanisevic, Becker, Chang, Courier and Moya
, of the 6 there were 3 players who were multi-Slam winners, Agassi, Courier and Becker
The total number of Grand Slam titles owned by players that Sampras beat in finals is 23 , Agassi with 8, Becker with 6, Courier with 4, Rafter with 2, Chang with 1, Moya with 1 and Ivanisevic with 1
Now for Federer
During Roger Federer's career, in all of his 17 Grand slam wins, he faced a total of 17 players in Grand Slam finals, of the 17 there were 7 players whom had won a Grand Slam title, Safin, Hewitt, Roddick, Agassi, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray, and of the 7 they are 6 players who are multi Slam winners, Safin, Hewitt, Agassi, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray
In Federer's case the total number of Grand Slam titles owned by players that Federer beat in Slam Finals is 34 , Nadal with 13, Agassi with 8, Djokovic with 6, Murray with 2, Safin with 2, Hewitt with 2 and Roddick with 1
I mean you can't exactly say that Federer's or this Era of tennis is weak if you look at these stats, nor is Sampras Era too
I've only included the Slams of Sampras and Federer as a list including Masters and WTF's would be a little too comprehensive and the Slams are the best indicator as players always play there best in Grand Slam tournaments
Just for a fun fact Nadal has beaten just 2 players in Slam Finals who actually have Slam titles themselves and they are Federer and Djokovic, talk about monopolization of Grand Slams between the big 3
