Hard Court Statistics Overview
Ilija Bozoljac has found hard courts difficult, recording 2–9 across 11 matches (18.2%). 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): 1–1 across just 2 matches — still very early days at this level on hard.
By format on hard — best-of-five: 1–2 (33.3%); best-of-three: 1–7 (12.5%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on hard that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
