From legends John McEnroe and Steffi Graf to current heroes Serena Williams and Roger Federer, and including quirky facts such as the tallest and shortest players to have graced the game through to pitting the top players against each other, these striking and fun infographics put the sport's most intriguing questions to the test: Who has won the most matches?
