I have. its extremely difficult to get a firm fitting while moving on clay. i was slipping all over the place. and i had very good traction on the bottom of my sneakers. didn't help. i can see why only 4 top American players have won the french open. it takes years and years to get used to the clay surface. no wonder those euro players who grew up playing on clay are so much better. and are so hard to beat.

for most people in the united states who played on public courts, clay courts meant dirt courts, not the processed material that they use on maintained clay courts. many of those clay courts were eventually covered with asphalt and have since been converted to hard courts.
