Insights

Only one Grand Slam match win, and it came in 2008

Marcos Daniel’s Grand Slam record is 1-16 across 17 matches, with his lone win producing his only R64 appearance. That breakthrough came at the 2008 French Open, where he reached the round of 64 at age 29.

His Grand Slam activity was concentrated in 2005-2010

Although his listed Grand Slam career spans 2003 and 2005-2011, the results table shows no appearances in 2004 or 2012 and only one in 2003. He played every year from 2005 through 2010, then appeared once more in 2011.

French Open was his most productive major

Among his 16 tournaments, the French Open produced his best result and four of his 17 matches were there in 2006-2009. It is also the only Slam where he advanced beyond the opening round, reaching R64 in 2008.

His best run came late, not early

Daniel’s only R64 result arrived at age 29 in 2008, after earlier first-round exits at age 24 in 2003 and age 26 in 2005. Most of his Grand Slam appearances came at ages 27 to 31, with the final one at 32.

He was consistently stopped in the opening round

Fifteen of his 16 tournaments ended in R128, and 16 of his 17 matches were losses. The only exception was the 2008 French Open, making his Grand Slam profile one of repeated first-round exits with a single outlier.
