Grass Court Statistics Overview
Nick Saviano has a competitive grass court record of 28–29 across 57 matches (49.1%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Nick Saviano is 11–9 (55.0%) across 20 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
4 quarterfinals on grass, 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.
vs. Top 10 on grass: 1–6 (14.3%, 7 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on grass; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.
By format on grass — best-of-five: 11–9 (55.0%); best-of-three: 17–20 (45.9%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on grass that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Best season: 1980 — 8–3 (72.7%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
