Insights

Peak came at the 1989 Australian Open semifinal

His best Grand Slam result was the semifinal at the 1989 Australian Open, achieved at age 26. That stands alone as his only finish beyond the round of 16.

1991 Wimbledon was his last deep run

He reached the round of 16 at Wimbledon in 1991 at age 29, his second-best Grand Slam result. After that, his final two listed majors in 1991 and 1992 were both first-round exits.

French Open was his most productive major overall

Across 11 French Open appearances, he produced his best spread of results: one round of 16, one round of 32, four round-of-64 finishes, and four round-of-128 exits. That is more varied and stronger than his other majors.

Wimbledon was his most frequent stage

He played Wimbledon 10 times, more than any other Slam in the table. Those appearances include his semifinal-equivalent peak run in 1989 and his round-of-16 finish in 1991.

His Slam career was long but narrowly balanced

From 1982 to 1992, he played 24 Grand Slam tournaments and 50 matches, finishing with a 26-24 record. That 52% win rate reflects a career with many early exits but enough deeper runs to stay above break-even.
