Fabrice Santoro

Racket Sports

Fabrice Vetea Santoro is a French former professional tennis player, born on 9 December 1972, who was successful in both singles and doubles and popular for his demeanour and shot making, including a two handed forehand and backhand. In singles he won six titles and reached a career-high ranking of world No. 17, although he reached a Grand Slam quarterfinal only once. In doubles he won two Grand Slam titles, one mixed doubles title and 25 doubles championships in all. He holds several ATP records, including the most wins over top ten players by a man who never reached the top ten, and in 2004 he won the longest Open Era singles match to that date, beating Arnaud Clément at the French Open. Since March 2019 he has coached Milos Raonic.
