Clay Court Statistics Overview
Slava Dosedel holds a solid clay court record of 147–114 across 261 matches (56.3%). A winning majority across 261 matches shows consistent ability to get results on clay. Claimed 3 titles on clay: Santiago, Munich, Amsterdam.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): Slava Dosedel is 8–9 (47.1%) across 17 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 clay (Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome): a positive 21–16 (56.8%) across 37 matches — winning above .500 at this level, week in week out, is a genuine sign of quality on clay.
7 finals reached on clay — won 3, lost 4 (43% conversion) — capable of reaching finals consistently, with room to improve at the decisive moment. 18 semifinals. 30 quarterfinals.
vs. Top 10 on clay: 7–15 (31.8%, 22 matches). Top 10 opponents have represented a clear ceiling on clay; addressing that deficit is the single biggest lever for improving the overall record here.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 11–13 (45.8%); best-of-three: 136–101 (57.4%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
Peak season: 1997 — 16–7 (69.6%) from 23 matches. That year captures the ceiling of what Slava Dosedel can do on clay when performing at their best and represents the standard to aim for.
