Grass Court Statistics Overview
Grover Raz Reid has found grass courts difficult, recording 11–15 across 26 matches (42.3%). 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 (Wimbledon): Grover Raz Reid is 7–10 (41.2%) across 17 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
vs. Top 10 on grass: 0–3 (0.0%, 3 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: 7–10 (41.2%); best-of-three: 4–5 (44.4%). Slightly stronger in three-set contests on grass, though the five-set record is still respectable.
Best season: 1974 — 3–3 (50.0%) from 6 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
