Each new tennis season is an epic adventure, spanning from the end of December through the following November. But four specific events perpetually define that long stretch of time: the majors.  

It seems like only yesterday the best players in the world were dueling Down Under. Nine months have since flown by, with a thrilling U.S. Open serving as the climax to this journey. Now, it’s time to reflect.

Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams very nearly won calendar Grand Slams, soaring past the competition into another stratosphere. They weren’t alone in enjoying success at majors.

Roger Federer (twice) came perilously close to ending his drought. He couldn’t follow through, but the Swiss legend should feel encouraged nonetheless.

Andy Murray and Maria Sharapova can also empathize with Federer’s experience of reaching a championship match and falling short. Some of their peers, however, were even less fortunate.

In 2015, Rafael Nadal’s struggles escalated, with the “King of Clay” losing his crown at Roland Garros. Because of poor results at the other three majors, his future looks increasingly murky.

In the following slides, we’ll analyze the above stars and a few of their mates inside the Top 10. Based on their cumulative performances at the four Grand Slam events, each player will be assigned a grade and listed in ascending order.

It's time for the final report cards.
