They also won the Masters Cup, the unofficial World Championships, twice (1993 and 1998). Although favoured for a medal at the 1996 Olympics, they missed out, being eliminated by their Australian rivals in the semi-finals, after 34 games in the third set. With Yevgeni Kafelnikov, Haarhuis won a 6th Grand Slam in 2002. He also won one ATP tournament in singles (Jakarta 1995), and reached the quarter-finals of the 1991 U.S. Open, losing out to Jimmy Connors.
