Player Preferences (based on a Sports Illustrated survey in April that asked 50 pros: “Which major would you most like to win?”):
1. Masters 50%
2. British Open 25%
3. U.S. Open 23%
4. PGA Championship 2%
http://www.forbes.com/sites/monteburke/2012/06/12/which-golf-major-is-the-most-prestigious/
I think europeans hold the british open in highest esteem, and the us open is the best test of golf, so overall i think masters, british and US are fairly equal.

ROMEO
We talking about the same
tournament? The U.S. Open? The
Biggest golf tournament in the
world?
TIN CUP
Not just the biggest golf
Tournament in the world; the most
democratic.
ROMEO
What do you mean?
TIN CUP
I mean it's open. Anyone's got a
shot at it. You just gotta get
past a local and a sectional
qualifier, and unlike Doral or
Colonial or the A.T.T., they can't
keep you out. They can't ask you
if you're a garbageman or a bean-
picker or a driving range pro
whose check is signed by a
stripper. You qualify, you're in.

For both tennis and golf, there is a clear loser: the Australian Open and the PGA Championship, respectively.
With respect to tennis' other 3 majors, I think it depends on the player, but I've always viewed the other 3 as roughly equal, though I do think Wimbledon was previously the most prestigious when tennis was largely a grass game. I also think the US Open has taken a bit of hit in prestige lately because it's so incompetently managed.
I also view the other 3 majors in golf as roughly equal, though I will say that the benefits for winning the Master and British Open (lifetime qualification and qualification until age 60, respectively) are WAYYYY better than the benefits for winning a US Open.

agree with most of this, except that every tennis player grows up dreaming of winning wimbledon, even the clay court spics.
tbf, RG is more incompetently managed than the US open. no lights AND no roof is worse than just no roof.

they don't need even regular night matches. they just need to be able to finish matches underway so guys dont have to come back the next day b/c of darkness.

yes agreed, but night matches are great.
also, do the tournaments have the same rule that the NFL has where the lights have to be on for the whole match or none of the match?
i know nadal loves wimbledon, but i also think there are plenty of kids who grow up and dream of winning RG or USO. i can't imagine any kid (save for a couple people from Australia) who actually dream of winning the AO.

i wanted a COUPE so badly.
also, when i really started getting into tennis was right when the US was doing well at RG. chang won in 89, Agassi got to the finals in 90 and 91 (should have won both imo), Courier won 91 and 92, and got to the finals in 93.
plus i was a baseliner, so i loved the play on the clay.

This is interesting:
Television ratings (based on Nielsen numbers in the U.S., 2011-2012):
1. Masters: 8.1 rating
2. U.S. Open: 5.1
3. PGA Championship: 4.3
4. British Open: 2.6

For Golf it's US Open >> British >>> Masters >>>>>>> PGA
US Open is the undisputed POTUS of golf. Masters is becoming more and more apparent that it's kind of a gimmicky setup that really plays into certain player's strengths.

Masters Bump.
My personal rankings as to what I'd want to win would be:
Golf -- Masters, British, US Open, PGA
Tennis -- RG, Wimbledon, US Open, Aus Open
-------------------------------------
In the greater populace I'd expect it to be:
Golf -- Masters > British = US Open > PGA
Tennis -- Wimbledon > RG > US Open > Aus Open
