How many times did R.Federer win in Australian Open tennis tournament?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Roger has never won a Grand Slam.

A Grand Slam consists of winning all 4 Major events - Wimbledon, the French Open, the Australian Open and US Open - in the one calendar year.

Only two males have ever achieved it: Rod Laver [twice] and Donald Budge.

If one wants to speak of one of the events, the reference would be a "slam" or "Grand slam event"

Asked by Wiki User

According to the ATP website (refer to the link, below), Pete Sampras played at the French Open as a professional in 1989 (singles and doubles) and 1991-2002 (singles only), inclusive, so it is safe to say that he did not play any of the other years (n.b., professional tennis players' juniors records are not usually published, so, he may have played there prior to his becoming a professional).
