Which Grand Slam has the nicest trophy?

For the females and the males? I really like the Men's US Open Trophy and for me the Venus Rosewater Dish from Wimbledon is just lovely.

I like the men's Wimbledon trophy for the gold. For the women, probably the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen - compact yet intricate. (Not a fan of the Venus Rosewater dish at all, heh.)

I like the Venus Rosewater dish, if I ever won Wimbledon I'd use it as a tea tray to impress my friends, ok I know u don't get to keep it, but it would be a good conversation starter for new friends.

US Open...its the only slam where the title you see for the Men in the trophy ceremony is the one the champion actually takes home, all other slams the trophy is a miniature replicant.

US Open one is a replica too, it's just not a miniature replica.
 
I think the Wimbledon women's dish is the worst out of the lot. The men's wimbledon trophy is the best but if the US open had been gold I'd have that above it.
 
Wimbledon's Dish is lovely. I also like the French Open men's trophy. Too bad it's full of Rafa's teeth marks (ha ha ha ha). The ones for the U.S. Open are too plain. :(
 
I've never seen the attraction of the Venus Rosewater dish for the women at Wimbledon. It is not a proper trophy, it is a serving tray and pretty indicative of Wimbledon's historic long-term sexism.

The Wimbledon men's trophy is easily the most beautiful grand slam trophy, and is so iconic in the world of sports. For the women, the Australian Open trophy is the nicest looking.

The US Open trophies look so plain and boring.
 
The US Open trophies are out of proportion. Ditto for the AO women's. Wimbledon's men's trophy strikes me of elitism and the women's isn't even a trophy.
I actually like the FO women's trophy, followed by AO and FO men's.

Does the word trophy sound a bit stupid now?
 
what i don't get is they would pay the winners millions of dollars but would only give them a small replica trophy of the much larger trophies that we see at the trophy presentations. IMO, the take home trophies should look the same.
 
Madrid. Its like the Toblerone of trophies, a wonderful thing to behold but if you're not careful you could hurt yourself ;)

I like all of them to be honest, with the Coupe des Mousquetaires being my top fave :)

Maybe they are afraid of this happening.

wasnt madrid the trophy that looked like a...umm......self pleasuring device?
 
Near tie between the Wimbledon and US Open men's trophies, with Wimbledon getting the edge because the US Open trophy looks too much like an urn for a dead relative's ashes
 
Wimbledon men's. ometimes Dubai trophies are hilarous. I liked the Toronto trophy made of crystal: Rafa had problems biting it :)
 
Not a slam shelf-piece but I really like the one Dolgopolov won last year at the Umag tourny. Sorry tried to post pic but I am failing so if someone can find a way and post and get others opinions please!! I think that trophy is beautiful!!!! Better than any slam IMHO.

Antwerp diamond racquet, Lendl must have a few under the bed. Not GS but a lot of diamonds, more than just sentimental value and he got to keep it for winning 3 times.
