Claim Welcome Bonus🇮🇹 Mattia Bellucci: form and statistics
Mattia Bellucci enters the clay courts of Roland Garros with the resolve of a gladiator, his service being his weapon forged in battle. An ATP 68-ranker, Bellucci comes with a 3-7 form and a 3-9 clays record in 2025. His 4-6, 2-6 loss to Pedro Martinez in Rome R128 showcased 0 aces, 4 double faults, 74% first serve, 60% first serve points won, 4 out of 5 break points saved, and 1 break converted.
His 2025 clay stats, which have him at 60% first serve, 63.3% first serve points won, 86.8% second serve, 4.2 aces per match, 3.2 double faults per match, 46% break points saved, 33% break points converted, and 0% tiebreak wins, are not exactly awe-inspiring.
Those stats notwithstanding, he looked good in Rotterdam after upsetting Daniil Medvedev to reach the semifinals; in fact, in his last six ATP matches, he's only managed to come out victorious once. Up against Draper, Bellucci's 4.2 aces/match might give the Brit some problems, but it's that consistency that has been hard to come by so far on this Tour.
