Insights
Peak came at the 1974 French Open
Cornejo’s only quarterfinal run was at the 1974 French Open, when he was 29. That stands out as his best Grand Slam result across 26 tournaments and 39 matches.
French Open was his strongest major overall
His French Open record includes the quarterfinal, one R32, two R64s, and five R128 exits. Across the four majors, that is clearly his deepest and most varied set of results.
He was most competitive in his mid-20s to early 30s
His best results cluster from age 23 to 31: R32 at the 1968 French Open, R64s at the 1968 US Open and 1970 French Open, R32 at the 1972 US Open, and the 1974 quarterfinal. After age 31, he never advanced beyond R128.
US Open produced his best non-French results
Outside Paris, his top showing was the 1972 US Open R32. He also reached the R64 at the 1968 and 1970 US Opens, while every Wimbledon appearance ended at R128.
Late-career results were uniformly early exits
From 1975 through 1978, every recorded result was R128 except the 1976 French Open R64. That stretch includes six straight majors without reaching beyond the opening two rounds.
