Only one second-week run, and it came at Wimbledon in 1992

Godridge’s best Grand Slam result was a single R16, achieved at Wimbledon in 1992 at age 19. Every other appearance ended in R64 or R128, so that run stands alone as her only move beyond the opening two rounds.

Australian Open was her most frequent major, but rarely her best

She played the Australian Open six times, more than any other Slam, yet her results there were mostly early exits: five R128 finishes and one R64 in 1995. Her only Australian Open win beyond the first round came that year, when she reached R64 at age 21.

Her peak came in a narrow 1991-1992 window

All of her non-R128 results were concentrated in just three tournaments: French Open R64 and US Open R64 in 1991, plus Wimbledon R16 and US Open R128 in 1992. That cluster shows her strongest Grand Slam stretch was brief and centered around ages 18-19.

She never advanced past the first round after 1995

Godridge’s last three Slam appearances, all in 1996, ended in R128 at the Australian Open, French Open, and Wimbledon. Combined with her 1994 and 1993 Australian Open exits at R128, her late-career pattern was a complete return to first-round losses.

Her Grand Slam career was short and heavily front-loaded

Across 15 tournaments from 1990 to 1996, she compiled a 6-15 record, winning 29% of her matches. The six wins were all earned before or during 1995, with the bulk of her appearances and best results arriving early in the span.
