David Nalbandian

Insights

Peak run came in 2002 Wimbledon

Nalbandian’s best Grand Slam result was the 2002 Wimbledon final, reached at age 20. It stands out as his only final among 36 tournaments and 122 matches.

Two semifinal peaks in 2004 and 2006

He reached four semifinals overall, with two in 2004 and 2006: the Australian Open and French Open in both seasons. That makes those two years his strongest multi-Slam stretches.

Best season by breadth: 2007

In 2007 he made at least the round of 16 at all four majors: Australian Open and French Open to R16, then Wimbledon and US Open to R32. No other season in the data shows that level of across-the-board consistency.

Late-career decline after age 28

After the 2010 US Open at age 28, his results dropped to R64 at the 2011 Australian Open, then R32 at Wimbledon and US Open, before ending with R64 and two R128 exits in 2012 at age 30.

Strong overall conversion into deep runs

Across 36 Grand Slam tournaments, he won 86 of 122 matches, a 70% record. His résumé includes 1 final, 4 semifinals, and 5 quarterfinals, showing repeated progression beyond the early rounds.
