Douglas "Hank" Irvine (born September 1, 1943) is a Rhodesian born American former professional tennis player.

Biography

Born in Bulawayo, Irvine was a student of Prince Edward School in Salisbury and played a variety of sports early in life. He was a world ranked squash player and also represented Rhodesia in field hockey. A school teacher by profession, he played in two Davis Cup ties for Rhodesia, against Sweden in 1968 and Spain in 1969.[1]

While competing on the professional tour in the early 1970s he made several appearances at Wimbledon and the US Open. He was a mixed doubles semi-finalist at the 1970 Wimbledon Championships, partnering Helen Gourlay of Australia. As a singles player he made the Wimbledon third round in 1971 and played a center court match at Wimbledon the following year against top seed and eventual champion Stan Smith.[2] In 1974 he won the singles title at the Rothmans Connaught Hard Court Championships played on clay at Chingford, Essex, England against John Clifton.

Irvine, who became an American citizen, had a noted career in platform tennis after leaving the professional tour and is a member of the sport's hall of fame.[3]
