Hard Court Statistics Overview
Hans Schwaier has found hard courts difficult, recording 7–16 across 23 matches (30.4%). 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 (Australian Open & US Open): Hans Schwaier is 2–3 (40.0%) across 5 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
By format on hard — best-of-five: 2–3 (40.0%); best-of-three: 5–13 (27.8%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on hard that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Best season: 1985 — 6–5 (54.5%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the hard record continues to develop.
