No American Male Has Won a Grand Slam Since Andy Roddick—Out of the Current American Players, Who's Most Likely to Win One?

American men's tennis has been in a bit of a slump since Andy Roddick won the 2003 US Open. No American man has won a Grand Slam since then, and the current crop of players has yet to show the same level of dominance.

However, there are a few American players who have the potential to break through and win a Grand Slam. Here are three of the most likely candidates:

  1. Taylor Fritz: Fritz is the current world no. 8 and has been in excellent form in 2023. He won the Indian Wells Masters in March and reached the semifinals of the Australian Open in January. His big serve and powerful groundstrokes make him a threat to any opponent.
  2. Frances Tiafoe: Tiafoe is the current world no. 29 and is known for his aggressive style of play. He reached the semifinals of the US Open in 2022 and has a win over Rafael Nadal on his resume. Tiafoe has the potential to be a major force on the tour if he can continue to improve his consistency.
  3. Sebastian Korda: Korda is the current world no. 38 and is still just 22 years old. He is a rising star on the tour and has already won two ATP titles. Korda has a big game and is capable of beating anyone on his day.

It remains to be seen whether any of these players can break through and win a Grand Slam, but they are the most likely candidates to do so.
