Hard Court Statistics Overview
Eric Winogradsky has found hard courts difficult, recording 5–16 across 21 matches (23.8%). 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 (Australian Open & US Open): Eric Winogradsky is 3–4 (42.9%) across 7 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
By format on hard — best-of-five: 3–6 (33.3%); best-of-three: 2–10 (16.7%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on hard that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Best season: 1987 — 2–6 (25.0%) from 8 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the hard record continues to develop.
