Career Highlights

Grand Slam Singles Results

At 17 years, 9 months, Wilander upset Guillermo Vilas to win the 1982 French Open and became the youngest man to win a Grand Slam singles title. This record was broken by Boris Becker (17 years, 7 months) at Wimbledon in 1985 and by Michael Chang (17 years, 3 months) in 1989 at the French Open.

Wilander was a member of Sweden's Davis Cup team (1981-'90, '95) and was an integral member of Sweden's 3 winning Cup teams (1984, '85 and '87). He compiled a 36-14 record in singles and a 7-2 record in doubles for Sweden. However, Wilander's most memorable Davis Cup match came in defeat. In 1982 in the tie versus the United States, Wilander was defeated in a five set, 6 hour and 32 minute marathon, by John McEnroe.

Wilander's lone doubles title in a Grand Slam event came in 1986 at Wimbledon with countryman Joakim Nystrom.

Wilander is the fifth former world No. 1 to play on the Champions Senior Tour. Since joining the Champions Tour in 1998, Wilander has won 3 Champion Tour titles and has been a Champions Tour finalist 8 times. When not playing on the Champions Senior Tour, Wilander can be seen on the ATP tour coaching Marat Safin, a former No. 1 ranked player and winner of the 2000 US Open singles championship.
