Brett Steven has found clay courts difficult, recording 15–20 across 35 matches (42.9%). The numbers point to a surface that has not consistently suited the game — a key area of opportunity on the calendar.

At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Brett Steven is 4–5 (44.4%) across 9 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.

ATP Masters 1000 on clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): a positive 3–3 (50.0%) across 6 matches — winning above .500 at this level, week in week out, is a genuine sign of quality on clay.

By format on clay — best-of-five: 7–8 (46.7%); best-of-three: 8–12 (40.0%). Slightly better in five-set matches on clay — a positive sign for the Slams specifically.

Best season: 1995 — 6–5 (54.5%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
