John McEnroe career statistics
This is a list of the main career statistics of former tennis player John McEnroe.
McEnroe won a total of 155 ATP titles during his career — 77 in singles, 78 in men's doubles, and 1 in mixed doubles. He won seven Grand Slam singles titles. He also won a record eight year end championship titles overall, the Masters championships three times, and the WCT Finals, a record five times. His career singles match record was 875–198. He posted the best single-season match record in the Open Era with win-loss record: 82–3 set in 1984 and has the best carpet court career match winning percentage: 84.18% of any player. McEnroe is the second male player to reach 3 consecutive Grand Slams finals in a calendar year in 1984 since Rod Laver reached all four grand slams finals in 1969 in open era.
According to the ATP website, McEnroe had the edge in career matches on Jimmy Connors, Stefan Edberg, Mats Wilander, Michael Chang, Ilie Năstase, and Pat Cash. McEnroe was even with Björn Borg, Andre Agassi, and Michael Stich, but trailed against Pete Sampras, Goran Ivanišević, Boris Becker, Guillermo Vilas, Jim Courier, and Ivan Lendl. McEnroe won 12 of his last 14 matches with Connors, beginning with the 1983 Cincinnati tournament. Edberg won his last 5 matches with McEnroe, beginning with the 1989 tournament in Tokyo. McEnroe won 4 of his last 5 matches with Vilas, beginning with the 1981 tournament in Boca Raton, Florida. Lastly, Lendl won 11 of his last 12 matches with McEnroe, beginning with the 1985 US Open.

For each tournament, he has indicated the city, the date of the final, the winner, the runner-up, and the score of the final. A tournament is included in his list if: the draw for the tournament included at least eight players ; and the level of the tournaments was at least equal to the present day challenger tournaments.
