Grass Court Statistics Overview
Pascal Portes has found grass courts difficult, recording 4–8 across 12 matches (33.3%). 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 (Wimbledon): Pascal Portes is 4–6 (40.0%) across 10 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
Best season: 1980 — 2–3 (40.0%) from 5 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
