Dominik Hrbaty




Hrbatý has won 6 singles ATP tour tournaments - the 1999 San Marino and Prague , the 2001 Auckland , and 2004 Adelaide , Auckland and Marseille events. His highest ATP Entry Ranking has been World No. 12, a ranking he achieved on October 18 2004 .

In Perth, Australia in 2005 , paired with teammate Daniela Hantuchová , Hrbatý won the Hopman Cup for Slovakia. As of February 2006 , he has won over $5,800,000 in prize money.



In the 2005 Davis Cup final, Hrbatý handed Croat star Ivan Ljubicic his only loss in the Davis Cup season to send the tie to a deciding 5th rubber, which Croatia ultimately won.

Hrbatý is known for being one of the fitter players on the ATP circuit (winning 3 out of 4 straight 5 set matches at the 2006 Australian Open ), having a strong two-handed backhand, and for creating a stir by wearing pink tennis polos with holes cut in the back of the shirt to create ventilation.
