Vijay Amritraj has a competitive clay court record of 77–74 across 151 matches (51.0%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Claimed 3 titles on clay: Bretton Woods, Bombay.

At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Vijay Amritraj is 3–4 (42.9%) across 7 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.

3 finals reached on clay — converted 3 into titles (outstanding 100% conversion rate). Converting finals at that rate separates champions from contenders. 10 semifinals. 16 quarterfinals.

vs. Top 10 on clay: 3–13 (18.8%, 16 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on clay; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.

By format on clay — best-of-five: 5–8 (38.5%); best-of-three: 72–66 (52.2%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.

Peak season: 1979 — 15–8 (65.2%) from 23 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Vijay Amritraj can do on clay when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
