17 CURRENT players have titles on all three surfaces.
My conclusion: there are NO MORE surface specialists. All surfaces are playing very much alike.
(Novak, Rafa, Alcaraz, Medvedev, Zverev, Monfils (?) and... tougher than I thought).

I got a few more - had to double check a couple - Tiafoe, and Coric have exactly 3 career titles each on a different surface.
Murray, Cilic, Tsitsipas, Tiafoe, Coric, Bautista-Agut, Dimitrov, Isner, Gasquet, Thiem,

Thiem has a title on grass
Totally forgot about that. And forgot that Grigor has been around for a long time, and that Cilic has not retired.

Thiem won Stuttgart in 2016, beating Federer in the semis - winning a grass tournament by beating Roger along the way tends to stick in my mind.

De Minaur versus Alcaraz was a treat to watch - loved the way they both used every inch of the court.. how tennis should be played!
