Clay Court Statistics Overview
Marcelo Ingaramo has found clay courts difficult, recording 30–45 across 75 matches (40.0%). 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): Marcelo Ingaramo has yet to record a win on clay at this stage — 0–4 across 4 Grand Slam matches. Breaking through here would mark a significant step forward on this surface.
7 quarterfinals on clay, including one run to the semifinal — regularly reaching that stage is a solid baseline, with the next step being to break through to the final rounds more often.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 0–4 (0.0%); best-of-three: 30–41 (42.3%). 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: 1985 — 13–11 (54.2%) from 24 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
