Reply to comment by alyssasaccount in [OC] The Big Three - Grand Slams overview by twintig5

Could be that there is a different wording in different countries. But if you check the link I used as a source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Grand_Slam_men%27s_singles_champions , you can see that is called Grand Slam Champions.
