Roger Federer has won 20 Grand Slam singles titles, third to Rafael Nadal (22) and Novak Djokovic (24). He has reached 31 Grand Slam finals, second behind Djokovic (38), including 10 consecutive, and another 8 consecutive (the two longest finals streaks in history), 46 semifinal appearances, second behind Djokovic, and 58 quarterfinal appearances, second behind Djokovic. He is one of eight men to have won a career Grand Slam (winning all four Grand Slams at least once) which he achieved in 2009 and is one of four players to have won a career Grand Slam on three different surfaces, hard, grass and clay courts. Federer has won 8 Wimbledon titles, an all-time record. From 2005 to 2010 Federer reached the finals in 18 out of 19 consecutive grand slams, winning 12 titles. He is the only player to win 3 different tournaments at least 5 times (Wimbledon, Australian Open, US Open). He is the only player to win two Grand Slams five consecutive times at Wimbledon from 2003 to 2007 and the US Open from 2004 to 2008. Federer has spent 310 weeks as the No. 1 ranked player in the world, second only to Djokovic, and a record of 237 consecutive weeks.

Federer has won 11 hard court Grand Slam titles (6 at the Australian Open and 5 at the US Open), which is second behind Djokovic (14). He is the only player to win 5 consecutive titles at the US Open (2004–08). Federer has won an all-time record 7 Cincinnati Masters 1000 titles. He has also won an all-time record 10 Swiss Indoors titles and has reached the final at the Swiss Indoors for a total of 15 years (2000–01, 2006–15, 2017–19) and 10 consecutive years (2006–15) and is the only player to ever achieve both feats in the Open Era in any tournament. Federer has also registered a 56-match win streak on hard courts which is the all-time record.

Federer's 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 to 2009. 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 Nadal in the 2008 Wimbledon final. Due to his success on grass courts, Federer is considered by many as the greatest grass court player of all time.

Federer has also been successful on clay courts. He has reached 5 French Open finals (losing in 4 finals to Nadal, who is widely considered to be the greatest clay court player ever), and has won 6 Masters 1000 titles on clay from 16 finals. Federer won his first and only French Open title in 2009 when he also won Wimbledon, thus achieving the "Channel Slam" alongside Rod Laver, Björn Borg, Nadal and later Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz. Federer has won 11 clay court titles from 26 finals (11 of his clay court finals losses have been to Nadal, against 2 finals wins). His consistency in his prime years on clay was surpassed only by Nadal, and Federer was widely viewed as the second-greatest clay court player from 2005 to 2011 when he achieved 1 quarterfinal, 1 semi-final, 4 runners-up, and 1 title (he succumbed only to Nadal in the semi-final and finals he lost).

Federer is the only player to register at least ten titles on clay, grass and hard courts; he has 71 hard court titles, 19 grass court titles, and 11 clay court titles. In his prime years, he won an unparalleled 11 Grand Slam tournaments (3 Australian Open titles, 4 Wimbledon titles and 4 US Open titles) of 16 events from 2004 to 2007. He reached the finals of all four Grand Slam tournaments in the same calendar year in 2006, 2007, and 2009 which is an all time record, joining Rod Laver (1969) and later joined by Djokovic (2015, 2021, 2023). In the World Tour Finals, the prestigious year-end tournament featuring the top-8 players in the year-end rankings, Federer has won 6 titles from a record 10 finals, and reached 16 semi-finals at 17 appearances. He has qualified for the tournament a record 14 consecutive years from 2002 through 2015.

Federer was selected by fellow players as winner of the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award 13 times (2004–2009, 2011–2017). Fans voted for him in 2020 to receive the ATPWorldTour.com Fans' Favourite Award for an 18th straight year (since 2003). Since his Grand Slam winning debut in 2003, Federer has won a record total of 39 ATP World Tour Awards.

As of November 2020 Federer holds the world's second highest number of performance-based Guinness World Records ever achieved within a single athletic discipline (37 total / 26 performance based).
