Dmitry Tursunov has found clay courts difficult, recording 29–44 across 73 matches (39.7%). 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): Dmitry Tursunov is 10–11 (47.6%) across 21 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): Dmitry Tursunov has struggled at Masters level on clay: 3–12 (20.0%) in 15 matches. Improving at this level is the clearest path to a stronger overall record on this surface.

vs. Top 10 on clay: 2–6 (25.0%, 8 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: 11–11 (50.0%); best-of-three: 18–33 (35.3%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on clay that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.

Best season: 2008 — 5–5 (50.0%) from 10 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
