Courier is the American former World No. 1 who won four Grand Slam singles titles, two at the French Open and two at the Australian Open. He actually holds the record for being the youngest man to reach the finals of all four Grand Slam singles tournaments, at just the age of 22 years and 11 months. He also won five Masters 1000 series titles, nice. Until Novak Djokovic in 2016, Courier was also the last man to win both the Australian and French Opens in the same calendar year.
