Peak came at the 1984 Australian Open

Her best Grand Slam result was a round-of-16 run at the 1984 Australian Open, achieved at age 19. Across the rest of her career, her next-best finishes were three round-of-32s.

Australian Open was her strongest major by far

She played the Australian Open five times and reached her deepest result there: R16 in 1984, plus R64 in 1983 and R64 in 1985, before two straight R128 exits in 1988 and 1989. No other Slam produced a better finish.

1986 was her most productive Slam season

In 1986 she reached the round of 32 at both Wimbledon and the US Open, her only season with multiple second-week-adjacent results. That year also included an R128 at the French Open, giving her a 2-1 record across three majors.

Her results clustered heavily in the opening rounds

Out of 30 total Grand Slam matches, she won 12 and lost 18, with seven of her 18 tournament appearances ending in R128. The data shows only one R16 and three R32 finishes, so deeper runs were rare.

Career ended with a late decline after a brief rebound

After reaching R32 at Wimbledon in 1988 at age 22, she finished with an R128 at the 1989 Australian Open at age 23. That final result matched the early-round pattern that dominated most of her career.
