Clay Court Statistics Overview
Hicham Arazi has a competitive clay court record of 92–92 across 184 matches (50.0%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Claimed 1 title on clay: Casablanca.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): a positive 16–8 (66.7%) across 24 matches — a player who generally rises to the occasion at the Slams on clay.
ATP Masters 1000 on clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): a positive 24–21 (53.3%) across 45 matches — winning above .500 at this level, week in week out, is a genuine sign of quality on clay.
3 finals reached on clay — won 1, lost 2 (33% conversion) — capable of reaching finals consistently, with room to improve at the decisive moment. 4 semifinals. 12 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 6–6 (50.0%, 12 matches). Competitive against the elite, but still narrowly below .500 — closing that gap would directly elevate the overall clay court profile.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 27–16 (62.8%); best-of-three: 65–76 (46.1%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on clay that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Peak season: 1999 — 21–13 (61.8%) from 34 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Hicham Arazi can do on clay when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
