Top 10 Tennis Players in the Open Era: Men’s Singles

#5 – Rafael Nadal

Rafael Nadal has 16 Grand Slam singles titles and counting.

The Spanish tennis superstar is a former world No. 1. He has been called “The King of Clay” as Nadal holds an impressive 10 Grand Slam titles at Roland Garros.

Nadal is a fan favorite. He captures tennis fans with his charisma and aggressive play. Often times, he covers the court when it seems near impossible to do so. Nadal is tied for second just behind Roger Federer in total Grand Slam titles. Despite recent injuries to the Spanish tennis star, he is no doubt a favorite to make a run at more major tournaments in the coming seasons.
