There is very little to choose between the three when it comes to success in Grand Slams.  Evert clearly seems to have an edge when it comes to winning more titles on the clay courts in Paris. Navratilova loved the grass lawns at Wimbledon and has overtaken both Evert and Williams in a big way.

All three have done well at their home slam- The US Open with a tie between Evert and Williams. All of them have a career slam (winning all four Grand Slams) which is considered a remarkable achievement in the modern game.
