The original term for a player winning all four of the major tennis Championships (the [Australian] Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open during the same calendar year. Recently, this term has been [bastardized] by the media and others to include bogus combinations such as "non-calendar year Grand Slam", "career Grand Slam" etc - but none equals the difficulty or rarity of achieving the only true Grand Slam. Hence, it has only been achieved in Singles tennis play by two men and three women: Don Budge and Rod Laver (twice), and Brinker, Court and Steffi Graf, [respectively]. Other sports use the term to portray winning all of the major championships in one calendar year (ie golf). In Baseball it refers to hitting a bases-loaded home run and in Contract Bridge it refers to winning all tricks in one hand.
