Best ever Pro players' statistics

[ininam]

Hi,
After some gathering of data, here are the stats of the best players in the world, everything in singles:

I did not find any data on win ratio for Jan Ove Waldner and Deng Yaping.
For players who have been playing before 2001, the win ratio might be overestimated by the WTT stats.
I manually added the results before 1996 when protour did not exist.

Enjoy!

[Zezima]

21+1 = 28? Math checks out (Samsonov)

So Zhang Yining is the true GOAT. Good to know!

depending on which criteria you chose!
Ma Long is on top of 3 of the 4 tables!
I hope I forgot no big player of the last 25 hears!

Wang Nan should be on the list.

You're right, she is now appearing, number 5 in the first ranking!

I was based on my experience, on the players I wanted to compare, and also on grand slam players (except Li XX, KLH and LGL who only won 1 of each major event. But it is ery arbitrary indeed!
Maybe the best way would have been to list all the World champions from 1996 (start of the pro tournaments)?
