Rodney Martin is an Australian former professional squash player, born on 17 October 1965, who is best known for winning the 1991 World Open and becoming the first player to defeat both Jahangir Khan and Jansher Khan in the same event. He comes from one of squash's most successful families: his older brother Brett and younger sister Michelle Martin were also top professionals, and he grew up in Engadine, Sydney, where his parents built the local squash centre. He began his career in 1984, attended the Australian Institute of Sport, won the 1985 Australian Open and was British Open runner-up three times. After injury he became a coach in Australia and the United States.
