What is Alex de Minaur’s best performance at Wimbledon? Australian tennis player’s record at Grand Slam

Alex de Minaur has had a fantastic year so far, reaching his highest ever ATP ranking of seventh and reaching the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam for the first time ever at Roland Garros in 2024.

He also won the Mexican Open for the second year in a row and is expected to be Australia’s star player at the tennis tournament at the Paris Olympics.

He is currently competing at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships, where he hopes to carry his positive momentum into his best-ever performance.

The Sports News looks back on his previous performances during the famous Grand Slam.

What is Alex de Minaur’s best performance at Wimbledon?

Alex de Minaur is currently enjoying his best performance ever at Wimbledon, reaching the quarterfinals after beating Frenchman Arthur Fils in the round of 16.

His best performance to date came at the 2022 tournament, where he reached the fourth round before being surprisingly defeated by Chile’s Cristian Garin.

On his way to the quarter-finals this year, he defeated fellow countryman James Duckworth and Spaniard Jaume Munar, and also secured a big win over Lucas Pouille in the third round.

He faces a huge challenge: seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic stands between him and his first ever Grand Slam semi-final.

Alex de Minaur Wimbledon Record

Alex de Minaur’s Wimbledon performances have been somewhat disappointing so far, with him often being knocked out in the first rounds in his six finals.

After failing to qualify in 2017, he made his first real appearance in 2018, reaching the third round but being defeated by then world number two Rafa Nadal.

He failed to build on this, losing in the second round in 2019 and failing to win a single match in 2021.

He also failed to impress at last year’s tournament and was defeated in the second round by Matteo Berrettini.
