Rafael Nadal stands head and shoulders above the rest. The Spaniard has ruthlessly dominated the surface for almost 20 years since picking up his first ATP Tour title in 2004. The man with the most Caja M\u00e1gica crowns is the only player to have a success rate of over 90% on clay, with more than 500 matches under his belt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apart from the undisputed king of clay, do you know which active players have the best stats on the surface? The list also includes defending champion Carlos Alcaraz who, despite his lack of experience on tour, has an outstanding record. Novak Djokovic, a three-time champion of the event, Alexander Zverev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Andy Murray, all players who know what it is to win in Madrid, also have some of the best numbers on the red stuff.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Who will dominate this year\u2019s Mutua Madrid Open?
