Only Open Era titles (since 1968) are counted, so some players’ numbers may be lower without their pre-Open Era wins.
Quiz is current for September 2022 and will be updated as needed.
One player was born into a country that no longer exists, so her current nationalities are listed.
The 4 Major/Grand Slam titles are the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.
Henin is from Belgium. And Seles was born in Yugoslavia (modern day Serbia). Her parents are ethnic Hungarian but she only ever played for Yugoslavia or USA.
By “history” I meant in the history of the modern era of tennis, or since 1968. I can see how that was a little unclear so I put Open Era in the caveats as it’s generally considered the starting point of the current world of tennis. But yes, in all history, Court would have the most.
If it is "in history" then Margaret Court (Aus) would be top of this list with 24.
