Clay Court Statistics Overview
Daniel Evans has found clay courts difficult, recording 20–39 across 59 matches (33.9%). 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): Daniel Evans has struggled at Grand Slam level on clay: 1–7 (12.5%) in 8 matches. The best-of-five format and elite fields make this the toughest benchmark on this surface.
ATP Masters 1000 on clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): Daniel Evans is 9–16 (36.0%) across 25 Masters matches — below .500 in the Tour's deepest fields. Lifting that record here would unlock better results across the whole clay swing.
3 semifinals on clay without yet reaching a final — consistent deep runs that show the ability to string together wins across a full draw, with the step to the final still to come.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 1–6 (14.3%, 7 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on clay; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 1–9 (10.0%); best-of-three: 19–30 (38.8%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
Best season: 2021 — 6–6 (50.0%) from 12 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
