Nadal takes this honor hands down, going 11-0 in Roland Garros finals to win his 17th Grand Slam title in the 2018 edition of the tournament.

Like Nadal, Djokovic is also perfect in Grand Slam finals at one Major. The Serb is undefeated in 8 Australian Open finals.

Federer's longest consecutive final-winning streak at a Major is 5, which he accomplished at both Wimbledon and the US Open.

Federer has had the most comebacks from two sets down, among the Big 3. The Swiss maestro has recovered from a two-set deficit seven times overall in the course of winning 17 Grand Slam titles, doing so at least once at each of the four Grand Slam tournaments.

Djokovic has done so once at each of the Grand Slam tournaments except at the Australian Open.

Nadal's only career comeback from two sets down came against Amercian Robert Kendrick in the second round at 2006 Wimbledon.
