At Grand Slam level (Australian Open & US Open): a positive 48–34 (58.5%) across 82 matches — a player who generally rises to the occasion at the Slams on hard.

ATP Masters 1000 on hard (Indian Wells, Miami, Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai, Paris): Philipp Kohlschreiber is 48–56 (46.2%) across 104 Masters matches — below .500 in the Tour's deepest fields. Lifting that record here would unlock better results across the whole hard swing.

3 finals reached on hard — won 1, lost 2 (33% conversion) — capable of reaching finals consistently, with room to improve at the decisive moment. 17 semifinals. 41 quarterfinals.

vs. Top 10 on hard: 13–57 (18.6%, 70 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on hard; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.

By format on hard — best-of-five: 56–39 (58.9%); best-of-three: 179–163 (52.3%). Slightly better in five-set matches on hard — a positive sign for the Slams specifically.

Peak season: 2017 — 17–10 (63.0%) from 27 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Philipp Kohlschreiber can do on hard when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
