The Prodigies
Most Grand Slam winners start young.
The "Prodigy Zone" (Age < 23, < 200 Matches) is where players like
Rafael Nadal, Boris Becker, and Mats Wilander
made their mark effectively instantly.
The Norm
If you don't win immediately, you usually win within your first 5 years.
Players like Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic sit
here—taking a few years to mature before dominating.
The Grinders
Then there are those who wait. And wait.
Stan Wawrinka and Goran Ivanišević played over 400 matches
before lifting a major trophy. They prove that it's never too late.
The Legends
Size matters.
Here we size the bubbles by Total Grand Slam Titles. Notice how the "Big 3"
dominate the landscape, even if they started at different speeds.
