Peak came in 2006 and 2009, with two Round-of-16 runs

Her best Grand Slam results were two R16 finishes, both at the French Open: 2006 at age 19 and 2009 at age 22. No other Slam appearance went beyond the Round of 32.

French Open was clearly her strongest major

Across eight French Open appearances, she reached R16 twice, R32 once, R64 once, and R128 four times. That is a better distribution than at any other Slam, where her best result was R32 or worse.

Most of her Slam career was spent in the opening round

She finished at R128 in 11 of 26 tournaments, including four straight first-round exits from 2011 to 2013. Overall, 11 of her 26 Slam appearances ended immediately.

Her best stretch was 2006-2010, before a sharp drop

From 2006 through 2010 she produced her only R16 and R32 results and reached at least R64 in multiple events. From 2011 to 2013, every Slam result was R128.

She was most productive at age 23

At age 23 in 2010, she played four Slams and reached R32 at the French Open plus R64 at both Wimbledon and the US Open. That was her only season with three results inside the top three rounds.
