At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Alejandro Olmedo is 5–7 (41.7%) across 12 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
One final reached on grass, without converting it into a title. That final-round experience is valuable groundwork for going one step further next time. 1 semifinal. 3 quarterfinals.
By format on grass — best-of-five: 5–7 (41.7%); best-of-three: 12–9 (57.1%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on grass.
Best season: 1971 — 4–3 (57.1%) from 7 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
