Dividing Up the Grand Slams: Comparing Sampras and Federer at the French Open Y-Axis: Cumulative Career Wins at the French Open

Limitations Sampras and Federer played in different eras, against different opponents (Federer’s career started around the time Sampras’ was ending), so we could not account for relative strength of field Comparing Wins/Yr. was difficult, because the statistic could be inflated by the number of tournaments each player participated in. More analysis needed to determine statistical significance Federer’s career is not finished, so his stats cannot be considered final tallies.

Conclusions Sampras and Federer have comparable AVG W/Yr. (56 for Federer, 51 for Sampras) They have the same career winning percentage (74%) Their performances in the US Open, Australian Open, and Wimbledon are very similar However: Sampras has more Grand Slam titles than Federer (14 to 13) Sampras’ winning percentage in Gland Slams is higher (77% for Sampras, 68% for Federer) Federer has more titles (79 to 64) Federer has performed much better than Sampras at the French Open (32 career wins for Federer, 24 career wins for Sampras) So: It’s too close call. At this point, it all depends on the Grand Slam titles.
