His best year on tour was 1977, when he was a finalist at the Cairo Open. He lost the final to François Jauffret, who he then beat along with Pat DuPré en route to the semi-finals of his next Grand Prix tournament in Murcia. Later in the year, he made further semi-finals in Gstaad and Zürich. He also managed to win the first set against Guillermo Vilas when they met in the Louisville Open.[3]
