Patrice Dominguez has found hard courts difficult, recording 21–26 across 47 matches (44.7%). 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 (Australian Open & US Open): Patrice Dominguez has yet to record a win on hard at this stage — 0–3 across 3 Grand Slam matches. Breaking through here would mark a significant step forward on this surface.

2 semifinals on hard without yet reaching a final — consistent deep runs that show the ability to string together wins across a full draw, with the step to the final still to come. 5 quarterfinals adds further depth to that picture.

By format on hard — best-of-five: 2–3 (40.0%); best-of-three: 19–23 (45.2%). Slightly stronger in three-set contests on hard, though the five-set record is still respectable.

Best season: 1979 — 9–5 (64.3%) from 14 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the hard record continues to develop.
