Top 20 by Career Points

.
"Career points" is a simple measure that allocates 4 points to a Grand Slam title, 3 points to a (lost) final, 2 points to a semifinal, and one point to a quarterfinal. These scores are summed up over a player's career. Some players' statistic is truncated--of those who also played also before the open era, and of those who are still active.
