Clay Court Statistics Overview
William Brown has found clay courts difficult, recording 8–24 across 32 matches (25.0%). The numbers point to a surface that has not consistently suited the game — a key area of opportunity on the calendar.
At Grand Slam level (Roland Garros): 1–2 across just 3 matches — still very early days at this level on clay.
Best season: 1974 — 3–6 (33.3%) from 9 matches. The best single-season display to date — a useful reference point as the clay record continues to develop.
