Insights
Best run came at the 1989 Australian Open
Her top Grand Slam result was R32, and it came only once: at the 1989 Australian Open, when she was 19. Across the rest of her career, she never advanced beyond the round of 64.
1989 was her peak season by far
In 1989 she reached her best result and also produced two R64 finishes at the French Open and Wimbledon, plus the R32 in Australia. That is her only season with multiple results better than R128.
She was most effective at the Australian Open
Her Australian Open record was 3-6, with results of R128, R64, R32, R128, R128, and R64 from 1987 to 1994. That is stronger than her French Open and Wimbledon records, which never produced a result better than R64.
Her career was front-loaded, then stalled at R128
From 1991 through 1994, she reached R128 in seven of eight Grand Slam appearances, with only one exception: the 1992 Australian Open R64. After 1990, she never matched her earlier R32 breakthrough.
She played 19 majors but won only six matches
Across 19 Grand Slam tournaments and 25 matches, her record was 6-19, a 24% win rate. The data show a long career span from 1987 to 1994, but limited conversion into match wins.
