Wally Masur (/məˈsʊər/;[citation needed] born 13 May 1963) is atennis coach, television commentator, and former professional tennis player fromSydney, Australia. He reached the semifinals of the1987 Australian Open and the1993 US Open, achieving a career-high singles ranking of world No. 15 in October 1993.

Tennis career

[edit]

Juniors

[edit]

Masur began playing tennis at the age of eight.In1980, he reached the final of the Australian Open boys' singles tournament and won the boys' doubles title.

Pro tour

[edit]

Masur turned professional in 1982. He was anAustralian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.[1]

In 1983, Masur won his first top-level singles title at Hong Kong, and his first tour doubles title atTaipei. He also reached quarterfinals of that year's Australian Open, before being knocked out byJohn McEnroe.

In 1987, Masur won his second career singles title atAdelaide and reached the Australian Open semifinals, where he lost to eventual championStefan Edberg.

Masur won his third singles title in 1988 atNewport, Rhode Island.

In 1990, Masur helped Australia reach the final of theDavis Cup, compiling a 6–0 record in singles rubbers in the first round, quarterfinals and semifinals. However he was left out of the team that played the United States in the final by captainNeale Fraser. The decision to leave Masur out of the final was fairly controversial at the time given the very significant role that he had played in getting Australia there, but was principally because the final was to be played on clay courts, which was not Masur's best surface. The US team beat Australia 3–2 in the final.

1993 was the best year of Masur's career. He reached the semifinals of that year'sUS Open, where he lost toCédric Pioline. He also reached his career-high rankings in both singles (world No. 15) and doubles (No. 8) that year. He captured doubles titles inMilan andStuttgart that year, which proved to be the final top-level titles of his career.

Masur retired from the professional tour in 1995, having won three singles titles and 16 doubles titles.

Post playing

[edit]

In January 2015, Masur was appointed captain ofAustralia's Davis Cup team, succeedingPat Rafter. He was succeeded byLleyton Hewitt in 2016.[2]
