Youngest wheelchair tennis player to complete a “Career Golden Slam”

Tokito Oda (Japan, b. 8 May 2006) was 19 years 121 days old when he won the wheelchair singles at the US Open in New York City on 6 September 2025. It completed the teenager’s “Career Golden Slam” in singles – i.e., winning all four Grand Slam tournaments and a Paralympic gold medal. In chronological order, Oda achieved the feat at the French Open (2023), Wimbledon (2023), Australian Open (2024), Paralympic Games (2024) and US Open (2025). At Flushing Meadows in New York City, Oda defeated Argentina’s Gustavo Fernández – his doubles partner – 6-2, 3-6, 7-6 (13-11) in the final to claim a seventh major singles title.

Niels Vink (b. 6 December 2002) was previously the youngest wheelchair player to complete a Career Golden Slam, aged 20 years 52 days on winning the Australian Open quad doubles with Sam Schröder on 27 January 2023. Wheelchair tennis players who had completed a singles or doubles Career Golden Slam, as of 14 December 2025: Shingo Kunieda (b. 1984) – wheelchair doubles, 2008, wheelchair singles, 2022; Korie Homan (b. 1986) – wheelchair doubles, 2009 (with Vergeer); Esther Vergeer (b. 1981) – wheelchair doubles, 2009 (with Homan), 2010 and 2012; Stéphane Houdet (b. 1970) – wheelchair doubles, 2010, 2016 and 2021; Sharon Walraven (b. 1970) – wheelchair doubles, 2011; Michaël Jérémiasz (b. 1981) – wheelchair doubles, 2013; Nicolas Peifer (b. 1990) – wheelchair doubles, 2016; Aniek van Koot (b. 1990) – wheelchair doubles, 2016 (with Griffioen) and 2021 (with de Groot); Jiske Griffioen (b. 1985) – wheelchair doubles, 2016 (with van Koot); Dylan Alcott (b. 1990) – quad singles and doubles, 2019, quad singles, 2021; David Wagner (b. 1974) – quad doubles, 2021; Diede de Groot (b. 1996) – wheelchair singles and doubles, 2021 (doubles with van Koot); Sam Schröder (b. 1999) – quad doubles, 2023 (with Vink) and 2025; Niels Vink (b. 2002) – quad doubles, 2023 (with Schröder); Gordon Reid (b. 1991) – wheelchair doubles, 2024 (with Hewett); Alfie Hewett (b. 1997) – wheelchair doubles, 2024 (with Reid); Yui Kamiji (b. 1994) – wheelchair doubles, 2024; Tokito Oda (b. 2006) – wheelchair singles, 2025. Oda may well have bagged a “Career Golden Slam” in 2024, at the age of 18, had the US Open’s wheelchair events not been cancelled due to scheduling conflicts with the 2024 Paralympic Games. At 19, Oda already holds multiple world records, including the youngest winner of a Grand Slam wheelchair singles title (male), the youngest wheelchair tennis player to be ranked world No.1 and the youngest Grand Slam singles winner on all three surfaces (male), beating Carlos Alcaraz and Rafael Nadal to the accolade.
