Clay Court Statistics Overview
Mikael Ymer has found clay courts difficult, recording 14–22 across 36 matches (38.9%). 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): Mikael Ymer is 5–5 (50.0%) across 10 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: 0–3 (0.0%, 3 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: 6–6 (50.0%); best-of-three: 8–16 (33.3%). Significantly better in five-set matches — a strong physical profile on clay that tends to tell as matches and tournaments progress.
Best season: 2021 — 6–6 (50.0%) from 12 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
