5, 3, 2, 1 are points for W, F, S, Q.

It means Gaudio has never reached QF anywhere else in any of the slams, other than his slam winning run which brought him 5. He scored 5 pts in total, and all 5 pts come from his slam winning run, thus 100%.

Here's the full list.

achieved a hell of a lot on the tennis court.

Ruud has 3 slam finals & 1 SF.

I asked couple AIs and they're pretty useless at this.
It's not quite yet the new AI era. Elon is posting some silly AI videos
since apparently that's the best what Grok can do.

He's also planning to put up to a million data center satellites around
the Earth orbit. That would help us to make many AI cat & girl videos, I guess.

Yeah but that's kinda everything he has.

3 finals (3?3, 9 pts)
1 semi (1?2, 2 pts)

Total 11, he has those 4 slam runs, nothing else. His volume (or presence, which is what P in MPOAT stands for, is weak)

#74 Ruud, 11 pts, 0%

But yeah, if we go with strict measurements, most titles, finals, semis, quarters, he would be high.

Here's a strict table for all multiple slam finalists.

First two digits are finals, second two semis, last two quarters.

Alexander Zverev 31016
Tony Roche 30812
Casper Ruud 30404
Todd Martin 20610
Stefanos Tsitsipas 20608
C�dric Pioline 20408
Miloslav Me?�? 20407
?lex Corretja 20306
Kevin Curren 20304
Robin S�derling 20206
Mark Philippoussis 20205
Kevin Anderson 20203
Steve Denton 20202

The rankings are perfectly ordered, first by success and if same, then chronologically.

So if both have 6 pts, 5+1 is ahead of 3+3 guy.

Roche won 1966 FO and r/up 1965 and 1967. In open era he was r/up at Wimbledon and twice at USO, losing to Laver twice and Rosewall once.
His highest ranking was no.2. He won 46 singles titles. All up he made
6 singles slam finals only won 1. Similar career to Medvedev? I'd
exclude him from this list as he does have the FO, even though it's not
in open era.

Imo he's the best volleyer of all time. He made volleys look
ridiculously easy, bit like Stan and his backhand.

I welcome your input, I said myself Roche is a slam champion prior to open era, I know that.

However since this archive deals with open era, then it shows his (open era) record for what it is, similarly the way Laver is credited with 5 slam wins, Newcombe 5 too, even though their totals are 11 and 7...

Yeah, I guess the only issue is the slam was held and he still won.
Granted the pros were banned, but nobody forced them to turn pro? So
really it's a self inflicted ban. Sure money is a great reason to turn
pro, but it's still a choice. Some don't really count Novak making this
AO final as Mensik withdrew and Musetti from 2-0 up. The way I see it
none of that matters, people only care who turned up and who won end of
the day.

Checking these stats, they're fun, for all the prominence Berdych had, he really only made 1 slam final.

Among the non champions who made just 1 final, he's the most successful/consistent one.

So he's kinda a winner within a loser category?

Who's the worst player to make multiple slam finals - Steve Denton?
Pioline lost a lot of finals but surely was better than Denton?

In the 1990s perhaps, nowadays I don't think so. ?

I remember John Entwistle posting on The Who newsgroup, and some legends
on NHRA's alt newsgroup. Nino on van-halen. It was pretty freaking cool,
among the chaos.

Ultimately, I really loved that it was an open platform, unlike the web.

It was another era, j.

Of course you have a point, but there was a sort of innocent naive
belief in not fucking people around just to pat yourself on the back. I
think that there'd be a much better chance in the early/mid 90s that
people were who they said there are.

I feel pretty sure that you're on other forums. I've gotten increasingly disgusted at easily finding people who seem to actually *want* to screw
others around without even any discernible advantage to themselves. They
just basically want to deny any proposition on what seems to be solely personal spleen. They don't wish to make *any* point, they just want to
scream "NOOOOO!".

In the 1990s perhaps, nowadays I don't think so. ?

I remember John Entwistle posting on The Who newsgroup, and some
legends on NHRA's alt newsgroup. Nino on van-halen. It was pretty
freaking cool, among the chaos.

How do you know it's them on usenet?

It was another era, j.

Of course you have a point, but there was a sort of innocent naive
belief in not fucking people around just to pat yourself on the back. I think that there'd be a much better chance in the early/mid 90s that
people were who they said there are.

I feel pretty sure that you're on other forums. I've gotten increasingly disgusted at easily finding people who seem to actually *want* to screw others around without even any discernible advantage to themselves. They just basically want to deny any proposition on what seems to be solely personal spleen. They don't wish to make *any* point, they just want to scream "NOOOOO!".

You are mistaken, Sawfish. jd would *never* do that to me! ;)
