One final reached, without converting it into a title. That final-round experience is valuable groundwork for going one step further next time. 5 semifinals. 22 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10: 9–24 (27.3%, 33 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record.
By format — best-of-five: 19–19 (50.0%); best-of-three: 107–152 (41.3%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Peak season: 1979 — 24–27 (47.1%) from 51 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Bruce Manson can do when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
