Tim Henman has an impressive grass court record of 84–34 across 118 matches (71.2% — strong). A win rate of that calibre over 118 matches is a reliable indicator of genuine quality on this surface. Tim Henman has reached 3 finals without yet claiming a title on grass — one of the finest margins in tennis.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Tim Henman has been outstanding — 43–14 (75.4%) across 57 matches. Winning more than 7 in 10 Grand Slam matches on grass is the benchmark of an all-time great on this surface.
3 finals reached on grass — none converted into a title yet. Reaching 3 finals is a mark of real quality, but the gap between finalist and champion is one of the finest lines in the sport. 10 semifinals. 18 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on grass: 5–9 (35.7%, 14 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: 48–14 (77.4%); best-of-three: 36–20 (64.3%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on grass that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Best season: 1999 — 9–2 (81.8%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
