Yesterday Fabrice Santoro was eliminated in the first round of his 69th and last career Men’s Singles Grand Slam appearance, an Open era record. The Frenchman leads that list ahead of Andre Agassi (61), Jimmy Connors (58) and Jonas Björkman (58). Santoro is set to retire at the end of the 2009 season.
He made his Grand Slam debut in the 1989 French Open, where he lost to David Wheaton in the first round. According to Infostrada Sports, Santoro’s best Men’s Singles Grand Slam result is reaching the quarterfinals, which he did once, at the 2006 Australian Open.
