Career

On 18 March 2019, Olivera reached the top 100 in the doubles rankings at world No. 99, the seventh Portuguese player to accomplish the feat.^[2]

In November 2024, he captured his maiden ATP Challenger Tour singles title at the inaugural edition of the 2024 Brazzaville Challenger, becoming the first player representing Venezuela to win a Challenger title in 24 years, since Jimy Szymanski in Tulsa in 2000.^[3][4][5][6] A month later, he reached his second Challenger singles final at the 2024 Manzanillo Open, where he lost to Mats Rosenkranz.^[7][8]

ITIA four-year tour ban

Following a provisional suspension, in October 2025 Oliveira was issued with a four-year ban by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) backdated to January 2025 for an anti-doping rule violation after testing positive for methamphetamine.^[9] The test was taken at an ATP Challenger event in Manzanillo, Mexico in November 2024.^[10] Oliveira argued that he came into contact with the substance following a kiss but after a review, an independent tribunal ruled that he could not prove that his exposure to the drug was unintentional and issued the ban on 10 October 2025.^[11] His results from 25 November 2024 onwards were disqualified.
