5 % R-Vasselin – 3 of 57
The 26-year-old Christoph Roger-Vasselin [139] became one of the most unexpected French Open semifinalists of the Open Era, and suffered the worst semifinal loss. Strangely, he began the match with two backhand passing-shot winners in a row, and broke his three years younger compatriot [9]. Apart from that semifinal, he never went beyond the second round at majors, and finished his career with a negative (90-130) record, as well as with two main-level finals (both before the French Open ’83).
