Grass Court Statistics Overview
Jose-Luis Clerc has a competitive grass court record of 11–10 across 21 matches (52.4%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Jose-Luis Clerc is 8–7 (53.3%) across 15 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
