Career
Devening was the American Hardcourt Championship winner in 1983 and was ranked amongst the top 25 juniors for six years.[2]
Before turning professional, Devening played tennis for Southern Methodist University, from where he would graduate with a business degree.[2] On the ATP Tour he made his appearances mostly in the doubles circuit.[2]
He made the second round of a Grand Slam doubles tournament just once, at the 1994 Wimbledon Championships with countryman Greg Van Emburgh.[2] The pair defeated the Australian pairing of Darren Cahill and John Fitzgerald.[2] As a singles player he reached the second round of the French Open in 1993, beating Frédéric Fontang.[2] His only other singles appearance was in Wimbledon that year, where he lost to seventh seed Ivan Lendl in four sets.[2]
The American reached two ATP finals during his career, both in 1993, at Båstad and Santiago.[2] He also exited in the semi-final stage of four tournaments, Prague and Tel Aviv in 1992, then Mexico City and Rosmalen in 1994.[2]
