Insights
Best run came in 1971 and 1972
Jun Kuki’s top Grand Slam result was the round of 32, reached twice: at the 1971 French Open and the 1972 Australian Open. Those are his only results better than the round of 64 across 18 tournaments.
French Open was his most productive major
He entered the French Open six times and produced his two best finishes there, plus two round-of-64 results and two round-of-128 exits. No other Slam appears as often in his results list.
His peak years were clustered early in the career
From 1971 through 1974, he recorded all three of his round-of-32-or-better results and five of his six round-of-64-or-better finishes. After that stretch, his results were limited to round-of-128 exits except for a 1976 French Open round of 64.
He played 18 Slams but won only 10 matches
Across 28 total matches, Kuki finished 10-18, a 36% win rate. The gap between tournaments played and matches won shows a career built mostly around early-round exits rather than deep runs.
His Grand Slam career stretched from age 24 to 31
His first listed Slam result came at age 24 at the 1970 French Open, and his last at age 31 at the 1977 French Open. The results table shows a steady age progression from 24 through 31 without any missing years between 1970 and 1977.
