Chip Hooper
Chip Hooper has a competitive career record of 104–119 across 223 matches (46.6%). The record shows a player capable of competing at Tour level, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Chip Hooper has reached 2 finals without yet claiming a title — one of the finest margins in tennis.
At Grand Slam level (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open): Chip Hooper is 13–19 (40.6%) across 32 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth makes that a notoriously difficult barrier.
2 finals reached — none converted into a title yet. Reaching 2 finals is a mark of real quality, but the gap between finalist and champion is one of the finest lines in the sport. 10 semifinals. 21 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10: 1–14 (6.7%, 15 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: 13–21 (38.2%); best-of-three: 91–98 (48.1%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance.
Peak season: 1982 — 34–24 (58.6%) from 58 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Chip Hooper can do when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
