Hans Simonsson has found hard courts difficult, recording 13–20 across 33 matches (39.4%). 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 Simonsson is 3–4 (42.9%) across 7 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 hard: 0–3 (0.0%, 3 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on hard; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.

By format on hard — best-of-five: 3–4 (42.9%); best-of-three: 10–16 (38.5%). Slightly better in five-set matches on hard — a positive sign for the Slams specifically.

Best season: 1982 — 5–4 (55.6%) from 9 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the hard record continues to develop.
