Paul Annacone has a competitive career record of 157–130 across 287 matches (54.7%). The record shows a player capable of competing at Tour level, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Claimed 3 titles: Los Angeles, Brisbane, Vienna.
At Grand Slam level (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open): Paul Annacone is 26–22 (54.2%) across 48 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth makes that a notoriously difficult barrier.
ATP Masters 1000 (Indian Wells, Miami, Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome, Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai, Paris): Paul Annacone has struggled at Masters level: 0–3 (0.0%) in 3 matches. Improving at this level is the clearest path to a stronger overall record.
6 finals reached — won 3, lost 3 (solid 50% conversion) — consistently getting to finals and winning the majority is a hallmark of elite performers. 7 semifinals. 37 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10: 7–32 (17.9%, 39 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: 31–27 (53.4%); best-of-three: 126–103 (55.0%). Consistent regardless of format — a sign of a well-rounded game that holds up as matches develop.
Dominant season: 1985 — 43–19 (69.4%) from 62 matches. That year represents a level of dominance that sets the ceiling for what Paul Annacone can produce.
