The history of tennis' Grand Slam tournaments -- Wimbledon, U.S. Open, French Open, and Australian Open -- date back to the late 19th century. The "Open Era" that we know now, allowing professionals to compete, began in 1968.Canada had its first Grand Slam moment in 1999 when Canadian Sébastien Lareau claimed the US Open title in men's doubles in 1999, along with his partner, American Alex O'Brien. It took until 2014 for the country to have a major Grand Slam singles moment. Until Eugenie Bouchard's ascent to the Wimbledon final that year, no Canadian player had made it that far all on their own.
