Grass Court Statistics Overview
Peter Curtis has a competitive grass court record of 31–34 across 65 matches (47.7%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Peter Curtis is 8–11 (42.1%) across 19 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
By format on grass — best-of-five: 9–13 (40.9%); best-of-three: 22–21 (51.2%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on grass.
Best season: 1973 — 4–3 (57.1%) from 7 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
