Glenn Layendecker

Insights

Only one second-week appearance, and it came at the 1991 Australian Open

Layendecker’s best Grand Slam result was a single R32 showing, achieved at the 1991 Australian Open at age 29. Every other listed run ended in the first or second round, with four R64 finishes and 13 R128 exits.

His Grand Slam peak came late in a modest career arc

He played Grand Slam matches from 1984 to 1992, but his top result arrived in 1991, near the end of that span. By then he was 29, and his final listed Slam in 1992 ended in R128 at age 30.

Australian Open was his most productive major

Among his 18 Slam appearances, the Australian Open produced his best result and three of his six match wins: R128 in 1984 and 1985, R64 in 1989 and 1990, and R32 in 1991. His other majors never went beyond R64.

Wimbledon was his most frequent stage for deeper runs, but still only to R64

He reached R64 at Wimbledon twice, in 1989 and 1990, and otherwise fell in R128 there in 1986, 1988, and 1991. That makes Wimbledon his most repeated venue for non-opening-round progress, even without a breakthrough past the second round.

His results clustered heavily at the opening hurdle

Thirteen of his 18 Grand Slam tournaments ended in R128, leaving only five appearances beyond that stage. The overall record was 6-18, a 25% win rate across 24 matches, showing that most of his Slam success came in isolated pockets rather than sustained runs.
