Clay Court Statistics Overview
Jose Acasuso holds a solid clay court record of 146–101 across 247 matches (59.1%). A winning majority across 247 matches shows consistent ability to get results on clay. Claimed 3 titles on clay: Sopot, Bucharest, Vina del Mar.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Jose Acasuso is 7–8 (46.7%) across 15 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
ATP Masters 1000 on clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): Jose Acasuso is 12–14 (46.2%) across 26 Masters matches — below .500 in the Tour's deepest fields. Lifting that record here would unlock better results across the whole clay swing.
12 finals reached on clay — won 3, lost 9 (25% conversion) — capable of reaching finals consistently, with room to improve at the decisive moment. 22 semifinals. 32 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 5–8 (38.5%, 13 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.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 9–11 (45.0%); best-of-three: 137–90 (60.4%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
Peak season: 2006 — 25–8 (75.8%) from 33 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Jose Acasuso can do on clay when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
