Clay Court Statistics Overview
Christophe Van Garsse has an impressive clay court record of 12–6 across 18 matches (66.7% — strong). A win rate of that calibre over 18 matches is a reliable indicator of genuine quality on this surface.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): 2–1 across just 3 matches — still very early days at this level on clay.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 6–2 (75.0%); best-of-three: 6–4 (60.0%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on clay that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
