Only one second-week run in 35 Slam appearances

Rochus’s best Grand Slam result was a single R16, and it came at the 2000 Australian Open at age 21. Across 35 tournaments and 50 matches, he never advanced beyond that round.

His Slam peak came very early

The deepest result in the dataset appears in his second listed season, 2000, when he reached the R16 at the Australian Open. After that, his best finishes were only R32 twice and R64 eight times.

Australian Open was his strongest major

Among the four Slams, the Australian Open produced his best result and three of his better runs: R16 in 2000, R32 in 2001, and R64 in 2002, 2003, and 2005. No other major matches that level of depth.

2006 was his most productive Slam year

He played all four majors in 2006 and reached the R64 at Roland Garros, his best result that season. The other three Slams that year ended in R128, making 2006 his only year with four Slam starts and one third-round appearance.

Late-career results were mostly first-round exits

From 2007 through 2010, every listed Slam result was R128 except one R32 at the 2009 French Open. That stretch shows a clear drop from the earlier years, when he still reached R64 or better several times.
