This is a list of the main career statistics of French professional tennis player, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. To date, Tsonga has won ten ATP singles titles including one ATP Masters 1000 title at the 2008 BNP Paribas Masters. He was also the runner-up in singles at the 2008 Australian Open and 2011 ATP World Tour Finals and a silver medalist in men's doubles with Michaël Llodra at the 2012 London Olympics.

Career achievements

Tsonga during the 2008 Australian Open, where he achieved his best grand slam result to date.

Tsonga reached his first career singles final and first grand slam singles final at the 2008 Australian Open. In the first round, Tsonga upset the ninth seed Andy Murray in four sets and eventually reached the final after upsetting then World No. 2 Rafael Nadal in straight sets in the semi-finals. In the final, Tsonga lost to the World No. 3 Novak Djokovic in four sets, the only set which Djokovic dropped during the entire tournament. Following the event, Tsonga entered the top 20 of the ATP Rankings for the first time in his career, rising to World No. 18. In September of the same year, Tsonga avenged his Australian Open loss to Djokovic by defeating the Serb in the final of the PTT Thailand Open to win his first career singles title. Two months later, Tsonga defeated David Nalbandian in the final of the BNP Paribas Masters in Paris to win his first ATP Masters 1000 singles title, which remains his biggest title to date. Tsonga's results throughout the year allowed him to qualify for the year-end ATP World Tour Finals for the first time in his career. However, he lost in the round robin stage after winning one of his three matches. Tsonga finished the year at a then career high singles ranking of World No. 6.

Since 2009, Tsonga has won a further eight ATP singles titles, bringing his career total to ten. The highlights of Tsonga's career during this period have been runner-up appearances at the 2011 BNP Paribas Masters and 2011 ATP World Tour Finals and semi-final appearances at the 2010 Australian Open, 2011 and 2012 Wimbledon Championships and 2013 French Open.

In February 2012, Tsonga achieved a new career high singles ranking of World No. 5. At the 2013 French Open, Tsonga advanced to the semifinals for the first time after defeating Roger Federer in straight sets and thus has now reached the semifinals or better at all four grand slam events. There, he lost to David Ferrer.

As of July 2011, Tsonga remains the only player to have defeated The Big Four at Grand Slam tournaments. He defeated Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal at the 2008 Australian Open, Novak Djokovic at the 2010 Australian Open and Roger Federer at the 2011 Wimbledon Championships and 2013 French Open.
