User:ForzaUV/sandbox/Open Era records

The Open Era is the current era of professional tennis. It began in 1968 when the Grand Slam tournaments allowed professional players to compete with amateurs, ending the division that had persisted since the dawn of the sport in the 19th century. The first open event was the 1968 British Hard Court Championships held in April, followed by the inaugural open Grand Slam event, the French Open, a month later. Unless otherwise sourced, all records are based on data from the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), the International Tennis Federation (ITF), and the official websites of the four Grand Slam tournaments. All rankings-related records are based on ATP Rankings, which began in 1973. The names of active players appear in boldface.

Year-end championships
The year-end championships (YECs) listed here are the most prestigious tournaments after the Grand Slams. There have been three prominent YECs in the Open Era, each involving only top performers for the given year. (1970–present) This is a combination of the YECs for two separate tours: the ITF Grand Prix that ran until 1989 and the ATP Tour that replaced it. For record-keeping purposes, the ATP has incorporated the entire history of the ITF Masters Grand Prix alongside its ATP Finals tournament; thus they are both listed as "ATP" here. In total, these YECs have been held at numerous venues around the globe and played on several surfaces (indoor hard since 2006). (1971–89) The WCT Finals, as the YEC for the World Championship Tennis tour, was held in Dallas, Texas and played on indoor carpet courts. (1990–99) The Grand Slam Cup (GSC) was an ITF event for the top performers in the year's Grand Slam events. It was held in Munich, Germany and played on indoor carpet courts.WCT and GSC events are specifically indicated in the Overall titles table.

Masters tournaments
(1970–present) These are a collection of 9 annual tournaments that are the most important after the Grand Slams and the year-end championships. From 1970, the Grand Prix circuit, alongside the smaller WCT circuit, was the highest tier of men’s tennis. The leading tournament category on the Grand Prix circuit was the Grand Prix Super Series, the predecessor to the ATP Masters Series. Starting from 1990, the ATP took control of the main tour creating the ATP Tour. Since then, the tournaments outside of the Grand Slams and year-end championships on the ATP Tour have been classified as ATP Masters 1000, ATP 500 and ATP 250 events.

Overall Majors

 * Major tournaments consist of the combined total of Grand Slams, Pro Slams and early ILTF Majors (WHCC, WCCC & WGCC).

Matches

 * Note: The draw of Pro majors was significantly smaller than the traditional Grand Slam tournaments; usually they only had 16 or even fewer professional players. Though they were the top 16 ranked players in the world at the time, this meant only four (or even fewer) rounds of play instead of the modern six or seven rounds.
