Insights

Three second-week appearances, all in 2014-15

Matosevic’s only Grand Slam results beyond the opening round were three R64 finishes: Australian Open 2015, Wimbledon 2014, and French Open 2014. Every other listed Slam result was R128, so his deeper runs were concentrated in a brief late-career window.

2013 was his most active Slam season, but still without a win

He played all four majors in 2013 and lost in R128 each time, making it his only season with four Slam appearances in the data. That year stands out for volume rather than progress, since none of those four matches produced a victory.

His best results came at age 28-29

The three R64 results all came when he was 28 or 29: French Open 2014 and Wimbledon 2014 at 28, then Australian Open 2015 at 29. Earlier appearances from age 24 to 27 never got past R128.

Australian Open was his most productive major

Across six Australian Open appearances, he reached R64 twice and R128 four times. By contrast, Wimbledon produced one R64 and four R128s, while the French Open and US Open each show only one R64 or none in the supplied rows.

His Grand Slam record was heavily front-loaded with losses

Matosevic’s overall Slam line is 3-18, and the first eight listed appearances from 2010 through 2012 were all R128 exits. The first sign of improvement does not appear until 2014, after a long run of opening-round defeats.
