Sergiy Eduardovych Stakhovsky (Ukrainian:Сергій Едуардович Стаховський,pronounced[serˈɦijstɐˈxɔu̯sʲkɪj]; born January 6, 1986) is a Ukrainian former professionaltennis player. Stakhovsky turned professional in 2003 and played mostly at the Challenger level from 2005 to 2008. His career-high rankings were World No. 31 in singles (September 2010) and No. 33 in doubles (June 2011).[5]
Stakhovsky won his first career title in March 2008, as alucky loser ranked No. 209, defeating top seedIvan Ljubičić in the final, thus becoming the first lucky loser to win a title sinceChristian Miniussi in 1991. He is perhaps best known for defeating eight-time winner and defending championRoger Federer in the second round of the2013 Wimbledon Championships, ending the latter's record run of 36 consecutivemajor quarterfinals.
He is the elder brother of tennis player Leonard Stakhovsky. He was coached by Burghard Riehemann. Stakhovsky retired from tennis in January 2022, and following theRussian invasion of Ukraine he joined theUkrainian Army.
Stakhovsky reached career-high world rankings of No. 28 in singles and No. 32 in doubles in 2003. In 2004, he had his best junior result, losing in the final of the US Open toAndy Murray, beatingDonald Young in the first round. In 2002, he beatNovak Djokovic in the quarterfinals of Luxembourg, before losing toDudi Sela in the final.[6]
Stakhovsky played his first ATP-level singles match in October in Moscow's Kremlin Cup. After beatingAlejandro Falla in qualifying to reach the main draw, he lost toNikolay Davydenko in the first round. He then reached the quarterfinals of a couple Challengers to finish the year ranked No. 335 in singles.
Stakhovsky began 2005 where he left off, qualifying into the ATP stop in Qatar in January and losing toLee Hyung-taik in the first round. In February, he won his first ATP-level singles match, qualifying into the main draw, where he beat No. 100Christophe Rochus and No. 29Mario Ančić before losing to No. 37Robin Söderling in the quarterfinals. He spent most of the rest of the year having moderate success at the Challenger level, but did qualify once more into an ATP tournament in Russia in October, reaching the second round.He finished the year ranked No. 173 in singles.
In doubles, he won two Challenger tournaments, in Spain in July and Prague in November.
Stakhovsky had a rough start to the year, losing in the first round of qualifying at three straight ATP stops. By May, his ranking had slipped back to No. 260 before he began making progress again on the Challenger Tour. Semifinal results at major Challengers in Spain and Istanbul in July got his ranking back to No. 181.
In October, he qualified into ATP main draws two weeks in a row, losing in the first round to No. 26Richard Gasquet in France and beating No. 21Dmitry Tursunov in the first round in Moscow before losing to No. 54Arnaud Clément. That brought his singles ranking to a career high of No. 158.
Although he did win his fourth career doubles Challenger title in Ukraine in November, he had no further singles success and finished the year ranked No. 198 in singles.
Stakhovsky was not as successful in 2007 in singles. He qualified twice into ATP Tour main draws in January and February, but lost in the first round. He had more success in doubles, winning two more Challenger titles to get to a career-high doubles ranking of No. 128 in August. But by October, his singles ranking had slipped to No. 294 before he began making progress on the Challenger Tour again. He reached his first Challenger singles final in Malaysia in his final tournament of 2007 to finish the year ranked No. 199 in singles.
Stakhovsky began 2008 by failing to qualify into several ATP and Challenger tournaments, before qualifying and reaching the quarterfinals of a major Challenger in Poland in February, losing to No. 68Simone Bolelli. He then entered qualifying of theZagreb Indoors, losing in the final round to SlovenianBlaž Kavčič, but due toMichaël Llodra's withdrawal, he entered the main draw as a lucky loser. He went on to win the tournament, defeating top players along the way, including No. 2 seedIvo Karlović in the first round, eighth seedJanko Tipsarević in the quarterfinals,Simone Bolelli in the semifinals, and top seedIvan Ljubičić in the final.
This year has seen Stakhovsky match it with the best in a number of ATP World Tour events. In the season opener in Doha, Stakhovsky lost in the quarterfinals to third seedAndy Murray. In Zagreb, as defending champion, he once again made the quarterfinals, losing to Viktor Troicki. Stakhovsky played Andy Murray once more in the first round of theDubai Tennis Championships and, after being one set up and with a break in the second, he twisted his ankle whilst trying to volley. Unable to finish the match, Stakhovsky retired hurt.
As the leading player in the Ukrainian Davis Cup team, Stakhovsky defeatedChris Eaton on the opening day of the Europe/Africa Zone Playoff versus Great Britain in Scotland and partneredSergei Bubka Jr. in closing out the tie by winning the doubles in five sets.
Stakhovsky won his maiden Grand Slam singles and doubles matches at Roland Garros. Stakhovsky qualified for the main draw with impressive performances in his three qualifying matches, coming from 1–4 down in the third set versusRik de Voest to record an 8–6 victory. PlayingBrian Dabul of Argentina in the first round of the main draw, Stakhovsky recorded a four set victory and set up a meeting withNovak Djokovic, the fourth seed. In a match lasting two days due to poor light, Stakhovsky was comprehensively defeated by the 2007 and 2008 semifinalist in three sets. PartneringJames Cerretani in the doubles, the pair won their first round match, before eventually losing to the eventual champions,Lukáš Dlouhý andLeander Paes.
Stakhovsky won his second career title in St. Petersburg, after winning epic matches against former world No. 1, two time Grand Slam champion and twice St. Petersburg Open champion,Marat Safin (who was playing his last St. Petersburg Open), and he narrowly defeatedHoracio Zeballos in the final.
Stakhovsky continued his good form in Davis Cup play with two victories in Ukraine's tie against Latvia in the first round Europe/Africa Zone 1 tie.[7] He also won his third career title, beating Janko Tipsarević in the final of theUNICEF Open – a tournament Stakhovsky did not receive a seeding for. At New Haven, he won his fourth career title with highlight wins overTommy Robredo andMarcos Baghdatis, becoming the first Ukrainian to win two titles in a season sinceAndrei Medvedev in 1994.
At the2010 US Open, after knocking out AustralianPeter Luczak in the first round, Stakhovsky battled into the third round with a five-set win over American qualifierRyan Harrison, coming back from triple match point down in a fifth-set tiebreaker to win a match marked by dramatic serve-and-volleying, rallies at net, and leaping overheads from both players. In the third round, Sergiy retired in the second set trailingFeliciano López with an infected toe.
Sergiy reached a career high ranking of No. 31 on 27 September 2010.[8] He ended the 2010 season ranked No. 46 and would begin 2011 at the Qatar Open in Doha.
He was the 31st seed (only time he has been seeded in a major) in the2011 French Open, he facedDavid Guez who he beat in four sets he then beat future US Open finalist Kei Nishikori. However, his run was stopped when he faced David Ferrer where he lost in straight sets.
Stakhovsky represented Ukraine at the2012 Summer Olympics, losing in the first round of the men's singles toLleyton Hewitt.[9]

He got his first top-10 win when he defeated seven-time winner and defending champion Roger Federer atWimbledon in four sets in the second round, to give Federer his earliest Grand Slam defeat since the2003 French Open.[10] This ended Federer's run of 36 consecutive Grand Slam events where he had reached at least the quarterfinals. Stakhovsky was ranked 116 at the time, and Federer was ranked No. 3. Stakhovsky subsequently lost toJürgen Melzer in the third round, going down in four sets.
After his first round qualifying loss toJ. J. Wolf at theAustralian Open, Stakhovsky announced his retirement from professional tennis after 19 years.[11]
During the2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Stakhovsky returned to Ukraine on 27 February to help defend the country, joining theUkrainian Army.[12][3][13] At the beginning of the war Stakhovsky joined a unit of thespecial forces of Ukraine.[13] In February 2023, he took part in theBattle of Bakhmut.[13]
In Ukraine, Stakhovsky was interviewed by Australian journalistSarah Ferguson forFour Corners. Armed and in uniform, he explained that he was fighting to protect his two young sons who lived in Hungary only 300 kilometres (190 mi) from the border of Ukraine. He believes that if (Russian President)Putin is not stopped in Ukraine, that he would continue further into Europe.[2]
Stakhovsky was married to Russian-Hungarian beauty coach Anfisa Bulgakova, they are now divorced.[14] He has three children and has lived inBudapest inHungary since 2014. Since 2018, he has been awinemaker with his own growing area in the region of Carpathian Ukraine in the west of the country in the border area with Hungary,Slovakia andRomania.[1]
