Wimbledon was his strongest Slam by far
Across 32 Grand Slam tournaments, his best results include four quarterfinals, and three of those came at Wimbledon. Wimbledon also produced his only Round of 16 showing, while his other Slams never went beyond the Round of 32.
His peak came in 1981 at age 27
His deepest run was the Wimbledon quarterfinal in 1981, when he was 27. That same year he also reached the US Open Round of 32, making 1981 his clearest single-season high point in the data.
He stayed competitive into his mid-30s
His final Grand Slam appearance in the data is Wimbledon 1990, where he was 36 and reached the Round of 128. He also made Wimbledon’s Round of 64 at 33 in 1987, showing results well beyond the usual peak years.
