Peak result came at age 22 in 1970

Battrick’s best Grand Slam showing was the R16 at the 1970 Australian Open, achieved at age 22. That was his deepest run across 22 tournaments and 42 matches.

His only second-week appearance was isolated

The R16 in 1970 stands alone as his only result beyond the R32 stage. His other best finishes were two R32s and ten R64s, showing a career built mostly around early-round exits.

Wimbledon and the US Open were his most frequent stages

He appeared at Wimbledon and the US Open six times each, more than at the French Open five times and the Australian Open once. Those two events account for 12 of his 22 Grand Slam tournaments.

Late-career results settled into a narrow band

From 1974 through 1976, every recorded result was either R64 or R128. In that three-year span he never matched his 1970 peak, and his final three tournaments all ended at R64 in 1976.

His best year was 1970, with four tournaments and his top finish

In 1970 he played four Grand Slams and produced his career-best R16, plus an R32 at the French Open and two R128 results. No other year combined that many appearances with a result as deep.
