Clay Court Statistics Overview
Tore Meinecke has found clay courts difficult, recording 32–40 across 72 matches (44.4%). The numbers point to a surface that has not consistently suited the game — a key area of opportunity on the calendar. Tore Meinecke has reached 1 final without yet claiming a title on clay — one of the finest margins in tennis.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): 1–2 across just 3 matches — still very early days at this level on clay.
One final reached on clay, without converting it into a title. That final-round experience is valuable groundwork for going one step further next time. 2 semifinals. 4 quarterfinals.
By format on clay — best-of-five: 1–2 (33.3%); best-of-three: 31–38 (44.9%). Markedly stronger in three-set formats; the win rate drops noticeably in five-setters, which has direct implications for Grand Slam performance on clay.
Best season: 1987 — 11–12 (47.8%) from 23 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
