Who Is Dustin Brown?

Dustin Brown (born December 8, 1984) is a German professional tennis player. Brown competes mainly on the ATP Challenger Tour, both in singles and doubles. He reached his highest ATP singles ranking of World No. 78 in June 2014 and his highest doubles ranking of World No. 43 in May 2012.

He is one of only a few players to have a winning record against the 14-time major champion and former No. 1 Rafael Nadal, having beaten him on more than one occasion with both of his wins coming on grass at the 2014 Gerry Weber Open and the 2015 Wimbledon Championships.

Early life

Brown was born on December 8, 1984 in Celle, West Germany, a town situated near the city of Hanover. His father Leroy is native to Jamaica, while his mother Inge is German. Dustin’s parents met in Jamaica and later settled in Celle. Outside of tennis, he played sports such as football, judo, and handball throughout his childhood. He began to focus solely on tennis at age 8, saying, “When I made the decision to pursue tennis instead of football, of course I wanted to be successful. I didn’t want just to end up playing for a club somewhere.”[5] Despite not seeing tremendous success in tennis as a junior, he drew attention from Kim Michael Wittenberg, an American who ran a tennis academy near Hanover. Wittenberg regularly gave Brown lessons, and according to his pupil, he “taught him to play tennis.”Dustin Brown in action

Growing up in Germany, Brown faced racism in both school and on the tennis court. When Brown was 11 years old, in 1996, he and his parents emigrated to Jamaica and specifically moved to the city of Montego Bay. The decision was partly made because of the cost of playing tennis in Germany and to make Dustin more disciplined on the court. He said, “I was pretty mentally soft when I was young. Anything could happen when I played—I could lose my temper, I got disqualified.” In Jamaica, in which track and field, soccer, and cricket are considered the most popular sports, he only got a chance to play tennis on poorly maintained public courts and with low-quality balls. Brown also said, “Things were just so different. Coming from Germany, having a Game Boy, cable TV and stuff and going to Jamaica and having to realize, ‘Shit, there are other things in the world that are important.’ I’m very thankful that happened. Maybe without going there I wouldn’t be where I am right now.” Nevertheless, he continued to play junior tennis.

In 2004 20-year old Brown became unhappy with tennis in the country, but seeing his potential, the family decided to move back to Germany. In that same year Brown’s parents gave him a Volkswagen campervan that could sleep up to three people. Since he did not need to stay at hotels, he was able to use the money saved to travel around Europe playing in tournaments. He said, “It was a brilliant idea by my parents, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to go on playing. It was a means of competing week in, week out.” Brown, who also owned a racquet stringing machine, would earn money by restringing racquets for other players at a low cost as well as allowing players to use his spare beds for a night.

Career

In his second main circuit appearance after a first-round loss at the Hall of Fame Tennis Championships in 2003, Brown defeated fourth seed Marco Chiudinelli and No. 139 Laurent Recouderc to reach the quarterfinals of the 2010 SA Tennis Open in Johannesburg, South Africa, where he lost to eventual runner-up Stéphane Robert. Brown became the second Jamaican after Doug Burke at the 1989 BP National Championships in Wellington, New Zealand, to reach the quarterfinals of a main ATP Tour event.

On May 17, 2010 Brown cracked the top 100 for the time first time in his career and attained a singles ranking of world No. 99.

Brown announced in June 2010, that due to a lack of funding and support from the Jamaican Tennis Association, he was tempted to switch nationality, and play professional tennis for Great Britain, his paternal grandparents being British. Instead, in October 2010 he decided to compete for Germany, his country of birth. Brown’s first event playing under the German flag was Eckental. Brown won his first title playing under the German flag at the 2010 Lambertz Open by STAWAG.

At Wimbledon Brown came through qualifying without dropping a set. After beating Yen-hsun Lu in the first round, Brown then upset 10th seed Rafael Nadal in four sets in the second round, before losing to Victor Troicki in four sets in the next round.
