Marita Redondo

Insights

Best Grand Slam run came at age 20

Redondo’s deepest result was the French Open round of 16 in 1976, achieved at age 20. That is one of only two R16 finishes in her 17-tournament Grand Slam record.

US Open was her most productive major

She played the US Open eight times and reached her best result there twice: R32 in 1971, 1972 and 1973, then R16 in 1978. Across those eight appearances, the US Open supplied most of her total match volume.

Career split into two distinct phases

Her Grand Slam career is listed as 1971-1973 and 1975-1980, with no results shown for 1974. The gap separates an early three-year stretch from a longer late-career run that produced both of her R16 finishes.

Late-career peak was brief but real

After returning in 1975, Redondo’s strongest stretch came in 1976-1978: R16 at the French Open in 1976, then R32 at Wimbledon in 1978 and R16 at the US Open in 1978. Those were her only results better than R64 in that span.

Solid overall record despite limited depth

She compiled a 20-17 Grand Slam match record across 37 matches, a 54% win rate. Yet her best results were concentrated at R16 twice, with four R32 finishes and six R64 finishes showing frequent early-to-mid-round exits.
