Leconte first came to the tennis world's attention as an outstanding junior player who won the French Open junior title in 1981.
He turned professional that year and won his first career doubles title at Bologna, and his first top-level singles title the following year, 1982, in Stockholm.

Leconte reached his career-high doubles ranking of world No. 6 in 1985.
In singles in 1985, Leconte reached the quarterfinals of the French Open and Wimbledon, the latter run of which included a dazzling win over world no. 2, Ivan Lendl, in the fourth round.
He compiled a doubles record of 17–5 and was undefeated with Guy Forget (11 wins), winning his last 14 doubles matches (from March 1985 to July 1993).
1986 saw Leconte reach two Grand Slam singles semi-finals at the French Open and Wimbledon, and attain his career-high singles ranking of world No. 5. Leconte also played on the French team that won the World Team Cup that year.
He reached the men's singles final at the French Open in 1988, won the French Open men's doubles title in 1984, and helped France win the Davis Cup in 1991.

In the final, despite strong support from the French crowd, Leconte could not overcome two-time former champion Mats Wilander who defeated him in straight sets.
In 1991, Leconte was involved in the Davis Cup final for a second time.
France again faced the US, and this time Leconte defeated Pete Sampras in straight sets in a critical singles rubber, and also teamed with Guy Forget to win the doubles rubber, as France upset the heavily favoured U.S. team 3–1.

Since 2010, Leconte has appeared on Australian television as a commentator on the Seven Network's coverage of the Australian Open.

In 2014, Leconte appeared as a commentator for the 2014 Australian Open.
One match he commentated was the third-round match between Frenchmen Gilles Simon and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.
