At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Kim Warwick is 7–10 (41.2%) across 17 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 clay: 2–9 (18.2%, 11 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: 5–12 (29.4%); best-of-three: 80–73 (52.3%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
