ROGER FEDERER
I was reading this article about the top most amazing sports stats from 2007 and this one about Roger Federer is absolutely stunning
91-4
Since he lost in the third round of the 2004 French Open to Gustavo Kuerten, Roger Federer has lost only four matches in Grand Slam tournaments while winning 91. Remarkably, all four losses came in the semis or finals, and all to the eventual champion (once to Marat Safin in the Australian Open and three times to Rafael Nadal in the French Open.) Mr. Federer's run is not only the greatest in tennis history, it may be unmatched in modern individual sports.
Just another example of why he should be considered the best tennis player of all-time. That just FOUR losses in a period covering more than two years ... Just Four!!
