Clay Court Statistics Overview
Paul Annacone has a competitive clay court record of 7–8 across 15 matches (46.7%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Paul Annacone is 3–3 (50.0%) across 6 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
