Hard Court Statistics Overview
Hicham Arazi has a competitive hard court record of 81–87 across 168 matches (48.2%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher.
At Grand Slam level (Australian Open & US Open): Hicham Arazi is 21–18 (53.8%) across 39 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
ATP Masters 1000 on hard (Indian Wells, Miami, Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai, Paris): Hicham Arazi is 18–23 (43.9%) across 41 Masters matches — below .500 in the Tour's deepest fields. Lifting that record here would unlock better results across the whole hard swing.
4 semifinals on hard without yet reaching a final — consistent deep runs that show the ability to string together wins across a full draw, with the step to the final still to come. 13 quarterfinals adds further depth to that picture.
vs. Top 10 on hard: 6–21 (22.2%, 27 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: 22–19 (53.7%); best-of-three: 59–68 (46.5%). Slightly better in five-set matches on hard — a positive sign for the Slams specifically.
Best season: 2001 — 12–9 (57.1%) from 21 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the hard record continues to develop.
