Brian Dabul (born February 24, 1984 in Buenos Aires, Argentina) is a retired tennis player. He announced his retire in 2012 due to an injury in his back.[1]
Juniors career
Dabul was an outstanding player in juniors tennis, reaching #1 in the world in January 2002.
Professional career
2003 to 2007
Dabul's climb in the professional ranks was a slow one, not indicative of his status as a former #1 Junior player. He broke into the top-500 in 2003, the top-300 in 2004, but did not crack the top-200 until late in 2007, finishing that year ranked #159.
2008
Dabul continued his slow, steady rise in 2008. In March, he reached his career-high in doubles of #88 with some good Challenger results, and then followed that up with a singles Challenger win in San Luis Potosí to reach a career-high in singles of #133. Three semi-final appearances in his next 4 Challengers got his ranking to #114 by May, but he failed to qualify into the 2008 French Open.
2009
Recently Dabul won a 7–5 victory over world no. 1 Rafael Nadal in an exhibition match. This match, which took place on the eve of the French Open, occurred when Nadal had a win-loss record of 28–0 at the French Open.
