Peak came in 1997 at Roland Garros

Her only quarterfinal run was at the 1997 French Open, when she was 24. That is the clear high point in a Grand Slam record otherwise capped at the round of 16 seven times.

Best Slam stretch ran from 1997 to 2000

From 1997 through 2000, she reached at least the round of 32 in every season and made the round of 16 three times: French Open 1997, Australian Open 1998, and French Open 1999 and 2000. This four-year span contains her strongest concentration of results.

French Open was her most productive major

Across the French Open she posted her deepest and most frequent runs: one quarterfinal, three round-of-16 finishes, and one round of 32. No other Slam matches that level of repeated success.

Australian Open improved sharply before the late-career drop

She went from a first-round exit in 1994 to the round of 16 in 1998, then reached the round of 32 in 1999, 2000, and 2001. The sequence shows a clear climb followed by a modest plateau before the 2004 return ended in round 128.

Career longevity was built on a long, steady Slam presence

Her Grand Slam career spans 1993-2001 and then 2004, with 35 tournaments and 79 matches overall. She finished 44-35, a 56% win rate, which is strong consistency over a decade-long, interrupted Slam timeline.
