French Open was his strongest Slam

His best Grand Slam result was the French Open round of 32 in 1986, and he also reached the round of 64 there three times and the round of 128 four times. Across the other majors, his best was only the round of 64.

1991 was his peak season by result depth

In 1991 he reached the round of 32 at the US Open, his deepest run after 1986, and also made the round of 64 at Wimbledon and the Australian Open. That was his only season with three Slam appearances all ending inside the first three rounds.

He was most active at age 27-29

His busiest stretch came from ages 27 to 29, when he played 10 of his 23 Slam tournaments. Those years produced his only round of 32 and four of his five round-of-64 results.

His Slam record was built on early exits

He played 37 Grand Slam matches and won 14, a 38% win rate. The results table shows 12 finishes in the round of 128, eight in the round of 64, and only three in the round of 32.

His career tapered sharply after 1993

After reaching the round of 64 at both the Australian Open and US Open in 1993, his next three Slam appearances all ended in the round of 128: the 1994 French Open and the 1995 Australian Open, plus the 1992 US Open before that late-career stretch.
