Kane Waselenchuk
Kane Waselenchuk has won 128 career International Racquetball Tour titles and 15 year-end #1 rankings, both records, and holds a career win-loss record of 651-62 across 23 seasons — a 91.3 percent win rate sustained over more than two decades of competition. At the peak of his dominance he strung together a 134-match unbeaten streak that lasted over three years, and through the 2019 US Open he had won 118 of the 172 IRT tournaments he entered, a 68.6 percent tournament win rate that dwarfs every other player in the sport's history. His career title total puts the next-closest player, Cliff Swain, at 71 IRT wins — meaning Waselenchuk has won nearly twice as many tournaments as the second-most successful player ever, a gap that has only widened as his career has extended into his 40s. His combination of a 91.3 percent career win rate and a title total nearly double the next-best player's has made Waselenchuk almost universally regarded as the greatest racquetball player of all time.
VS
Cliff Swain
Cliff Swain finished as the International Racquetball Tour's year-end number one six times — in 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1998, and 2002 — a span of dominance stretching across more than a decade, and he won US Open titles in 1997 and 2001. During the 1993-94 season specifically, Swain won 13 of the tour's 19 stops, including two separate streaks of five consecutive tournament victories, a level of single-season dominance that remains one of the most statistically extreme stretches in the sport's history. He retired with 70 career IRT tournament titles, a total that stood as the sport's record until Kane Waselenchuk eventually surpassed it, and Swain was inducted into the USA Racquetball Hall of Fame in 2003. His combination of six year-end number one finishes and a then-record 70 career tournament titles has made Swain one of the most historically significant figures in American racquetball, second only to Waselenchuk in the sport's modern era.
