Chang (maybe). Not sure if he ever made the semis of Wimbledon though. He lost late in the tournament to Sampras once, but that may have been the QF.

i´m surprised that Becker reached the semis at roland garros. was that the year he lost to Pernfors?

He did it 3 times in RG, 87 lost vs Wilander, 89 lost vs Edberg and 91 lost vs Agassi

I thought the same, but Chang got only QF (94)

Some notes, besides the mention on Borg or Nastase in Aussie Open...
Connors not played RG from 74 to 78, maybe his greatest years on clay.
Kodes also never played Australian Open.
Mc Enroe played only 5 times the Australian Open.

[Q&M son]

Wilander and Vilas didn't got Wimby SF, but they were in QF twice at least (Mats 3 times)

Ashe won AUS OPEN, WIMBY & USO and got QF in RG 1971

As Moose shows to me, there was a thread about it... How about before Open Era... Don Budge and Lew Hoad come easy to my head right now, help me here...

Actually he made it three times 1987, 1989 and I think (though I am not certain) 1991.

In 1989 he lost to Edberg. I think he lost to Agassi in 1991. 1987 I am not sure.
