Dmitry Igorevich Tursunov (Russian: Audio file "Dmitry_tursunov.ogg" not found; born 12 December 1982) is a Russian professional male tennis player. He was 12 years old when he came to the United States to train and further his prospects of becoming a professional player. Tursunov's career-high singles ranking is World No. 20, achieved in October 2006.

Tursunov is an offensive baseliner with excellent groundstrokes from both sides and prefers to play on faster surfaces; he jokes about his lack of ability and success on clay courts. He is sponsored by Fila and Wilson. He helped the Russian Davis Cup team win the 2006 Davis Cup and reach the finals of the 2007 Davis Cup.[citation needed]

Tennis career

Tursunov began playing tennis in Moscow at the age of five when his father made him play a few hours a day. He came to the United States to train with Vitaly Gorin.[1]

I practiced a few hours a day. My dad realized fairly early that I had a lot of potential. A lot of people criticize him for basically choosing that career for me. He understood that I didn’t have many options to make money and since he really liked tennis, he decided that I was to be a tennis player. It just happened that I was naturally good at it.[1]

Early years

Tursunov played his first match in June 1998 against Chris Groer in a Futures event in Los Angeles and won but lost in the following round. In 1999, the Russian played in the Futures events in Philippines and United States and was able to reach 2 semifinals and a quarterfinal. In 2000, he had a broken leg in January of the same year, which forced him to miss four months of the season. When he came back he continued playing in the Futures events in the United States. He reached his first Futures final in Haines City, Florida but lost to Australian Jaymon Crabb. He then won his first Futures title the following week defeating another Australian Peter Luczak. He reached another final in Hattiesburg, Mississippi losing to Scott Barron and won two more Futures events in Malibu, California over José de Armas and in Scottsdale, Arizona over Stefan Wauters.[citation needed]

In 2001 Tursunov won the Futures event in Boca Raton over Jeff Morrison, then the Dallas Challenger defeating Justin Bower. After these 2 lower level tournament successes Tursunov qualified for his first ATP event in 2001 Kroger St. Jude International and made the quarterfinals, earning his first top 100 win over then World No. 51 Greg Rusedski along the way before losing to the eventual champion Mark Philippoussis. He continued playing in the Challenger circuit reaching 3 quarterfinals but his form suffered after his impact in Memphis because of what doctors believed was a bulging disk in his back. He returned after two months away and then suffered a stress fracture in his leg. As the back pain continued, Tursunov went to see a doctor in Sacramento and the extent of his injury problems were misdiagnosed as he was suffering from not one, but two fractures in his L–2 vertebra. Tursunov was forced to miss six months and did not come back to tennis until June 2002 and that year he won another title on the United States Futures circuit. and reached a challenger semifinal and two quarterfinals.[citation needed]

However, he rebounded in the 2004 Wimbledon upsetting 19th seed and compatriot Marat Safin in the first round and eventually fell to 9th seed Carlos Moyá in the third round. At the 2004 TD Waterhouse Cup, he was able to reach his first ATP Tour semifinals retiring against Lleyton Hewitt.

Following this match was a proset mixed doubles between Russians Tursunov and Nadia Petrova and Spaniards Tommy Robredo and Anabel Medina Garrigues. This match was a clear show of the playful nature of Tursunov and the other players. The match was relaxed since the outcome of the mixed doubles proset match did not matter. At one stage, Anabel Medina Garrigues switched with Tursunov so that Tursunov and Robredo were on one side, while Medina Garrigues and Petrova were on the other.

Davis Cup
