I think he has won 8 grand slam titles - NOT 7 as it says in the text. However; only 7 of them was in singles. --Kricke

Birth location changed from Moheda to Växjö. Why? If I'm not mistaken he was born in Torpsbruk in Moheda Perish. He grew up in Växjö. See the Swedish article. Kricke 21:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Masters

He actually didn't win any Masters Series titles. The Masters Series didn't come into existence until 1990. Those events were Grand Prix events beforehand.

While Wilander may be one of a select group of people there is no clarification as to the period in which this achievement was possible to attain. As it refers to Grand Slam tournaments only (not all Majors) then it was only possible from 1978 (year US Open was played on hard courts). This should be noted, otherwise it could be mis-interpreted as including a period that far exceeds that which it relates to. Antipodenz (talk) 08:30, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
