Clay Court Statistics Overview
Andrei Olhovskiy has found clay courts difficult, recording 16–36 across 52 matches (30.8%). The numbers point to a surface that has not consistently suited the game — a key area of opportunity on the calendar.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Andrei Olhovskiy has struggled at Grand Slam level on clay: 1–5 (16.7%) in 6 matches. The best-of-five format and elite fields make this the toughest benchmark on this surface.
ATP Masters 1000 on clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): Andrei Olhovskiy is 5–8 (38.5%) across 13 Masters matches — below .500 in the Tour's deepest fields. Lifting that record here would unlock better results across the whole clay swing.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 0–5 (0.0%, 5 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on clay; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 1–5 (16.7%); best-of-three: 15–31 (32.6%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
Best season: 1994 — 5–6 (45.5%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
