federer's success does not hold strictly to hard courts, his most successful surface is grass where he has won an open era record 19 grass court titles including an all-time record 10 halle open titles and an all-time record of 8 wimbledon titles. he reached an all-time record 7 consecutive wimbledon finals from 2003–09 and is the only player to achieve this feat in the open era. federer has the longest grass court winning streak in the open era as he won 65 consecutive matches on grass from 2003 to 2008 where he was beaten by rafael nadal in the 2008 wimbledon final. due to his success on grass courts, federer is considered by some as the greatest grass court player of the open era having surpassed the likes of pete sampras (winner of 7 wimbledon trophies and undefeated in finals), björn borg (won 5 consecutive wimbledon finals), boris becker, john mcenroe, novak djokovic and rafael nadal due to his consistent record on grass and the number of titles/finals he has accrued.
