Grass Court Statistics Overview
Pierre Barthes holds a solid grass court record of 41–32 across 73 matches (56.2%). A winning majority across 73 matches shows consistent ability to get results on grass. Pierre Barthes has reached 3 finals without yet claiming a title on grass — one of the finest margins in tennis.
At Grand Slam level (Wimbledon): Pierre Barthes is 15–12 (55.6%) across 27 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
3 finals reached on grass — none converted into a title yet. Reaching 3 finals is a mark of real quality, but the gap between finalist and champion is one of the finest lines in the sport. 3 semifinals. 5 quarterfinals.
By format on grass — best-of-five: 16–14 (53.3%); best-of-three: 25–18 (58.1%). Slightly stronger in three-set contests on grass, though the five-set record is still respectable.
Best season: 1972 — 7–3 (70.0%) from 10 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the grass record continues to develop.
