Grass Court Statistics Overview
Olivier Rochus has a competitive grass court record of 43–38 across 81 matches (53.1%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Olivier Rochus has reached 2 finals without yet claiming a title on grass — one of the finest margins in tennis.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Olivier Rochus is 13–13 (50.0%) across 26 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
2 finals reached on grass — none converted into a title yet. Reaching 2 finals is a mark of real quality, but the gap between finalist and champion is one of the finest lines in the sport. 5 semifinals. 8 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on grass: 3–8 (27.3%, 11 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: 13–13 (50.0%); best-of-three: 30–25 (54.5%). Slightly stronger in three-set contests on grass, though the five-set record is still respectable.
Best season: 2009 — 6–2 (75.0%) from 8 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
