Insights
Peak result came early and was matched only once
Pasarell’s best Grand Slam result was a quarterfinal, reached once in the Amateur Era and once in the Open Era. Those are his only appearances beyond the round of 16 across 31 tournaments.
1976 was his strongest Open Era season
In 1976 he reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon, the round of 16 at the Australian Open, and the round of 64 at both the French Open and US Open. That is his only season with two results at R16-or-better in the Open Era data.
His deepest runs clustered in his early 30s
Pasarell’s quarterfinal and round-of-16 results all came between ages 31 and 33: the 1976 Australian Open at 31, Wimbledon at 32, and the 1977 Australian Open at 33. After age 33, his results were R128 at both 1978 and 1979 US Opens and at Wimbledon in 1979.
US Open was his most frequent Grand Slam stop
He played the US Open 13 times, far more than any other Slam in the table. Across those 13 appearances he produced his two quarterfinals, three R32 finishes, one R64, three R128s, and one Amateur Era quarterfinal.
His career shows a long middle stretch of modest results
From 1968 through 1975, every listed result was between R32 and R128 except the 1976 breakthroughs. That eight-year span includes repeated exits at R32, R64, or R128, with no quarterfinals until 1976.
