On the Grand Prix tennis circuit, Granát won one title, which was the doubles at the 1981 Sofia Open.[2] His best singles performance came at the 1977 Scandinavian Covered Court Championships in Helsinki, where he was a semi-finalist.[2] He had a win over Peter McNamara at Rotterdam in 1983, when the Australian was ranked seventh in the world.[2]
