Hard Court Statistics Overview
Scott Davis has a competitive hard court record of 129–107 across 236 matches (54.7%). The record shows a player capable of competing here, though there is clear room to push the win rate higher. Claimed 3 titles on hard: Auckland, Maui, Tokyo-1.
At Grand Slam level (Australian Open & US Open): Scott Davis is 11–15 (42.3%) across 26 Grand Slam matches — below .500, though the elite draw depth at the Slams makes that a notoriously difficult barrier to crack.
ATP Masters 1000 on hard (Indian Wells, Miami, Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai, Paris): a positive 8–8 (50.0%) across 16 matches — winning above .500 at this level, week in week out, is a genuine sign of quality on hard.
6 finals reached on hard — won 3, lost 3 (solid 50% conversion) — consistently getting to finals and winning the majority is a hallmark of elite performers on hard. 12 semifinals. 24 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on hard: 4–20 (16.7%, 24 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on hard; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.
By format on hard — best-of-five: 17–19 (47.2%); best-of-three: 112–88 (56.0%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on hard.
Peak season: 1985 — 24–10 (70.6%) from 34 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Scott Davis can do on hard when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
