Fritz Buehning has a competitive career record of 113–120 across 233 matches (48.5%). The record shows a player capable of competing at Tour level, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Claimed 1 title: Sydney-2.
At Grand Slam level (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open): Fritz Buehning is 12–16 (42.9%) across 28 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth makes that a notoriously difficult barrier.
3 finals reached — won 1, lost 2 (33% conversion) — capable of reaching finals consistently, with room to improve at the decisive moment. 8 semifinals. 21 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10: 5–24 (17.2%, 29 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: 12–18 (40.0%); best-of-three: 101–102 (49.8%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance.
Peak season: 1980 — 26–26 (50.0%) from 52 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Fritz Buehning can do when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
