Clay Court Statistics Overview
Jaroslav Navratil has found clay courts difficult, recording 21–36 across 57 matches (36.8%). 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): Jaroslav Navratil has yet to record a win on clay at this stage — 0–2 across 2 Grand Slam matches. Breaking through here would mark a significant step forward on this surface.
4 quarterfinals on clay, including one run to the semifinal — regularly reaching that stage is a solid baseline, with the next step being to break through to the final rounds more often.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 1–5 (16.7%, 6 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.
Best season: 1987 — 7–5 (58.3%) from 12 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
