Grass Court Statistics Overview
Pat Cash has an impressive grass court record of 99–37 across 136 matches (72.8% — strong). A win rate of that calibre over 136 matches is a reliable indicator of genuine quality on this surface. Claimed 2 titles on grass: Melbourne-2, Wimbledon.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Pat Cash has been outstanding — 43–15 (74.1%) across 58 matches. Winning more than 7 in 10 Grand Slam matches on grass is the benchmark of an all-time great on this surface.
3 finals reached on grass — won 2, lost 1 (solid 67% conversion) — consistently getting to finals and winning the majority is a hallmark of elite performers on grass. 7 semifinals. 17 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on grass: 11–12 (47.8%, 23 matches). Competitive against the elite, but still narrowly below .500 — closing that gap would directly elevate the overall grass court profile.
By format on grass — best-of-five: 53–17 (75.7%); best-of-three: 46–20 (69.7%). Slightly better in five-set matches on grass — a positive sign for the Slams specifically.
Best season: 1986 — 10–1 (90.9%) from 11 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
Pat Cash assembled a remarkable 15-match winning streak on grass — a run of that length goes far beyond form and into a different level of dominance on this surface.
