Jaroslav Drobný


Jaroslav Drobný ((:ˈjaroslav ˈdrobniː);〔''Jaroslav'' in isolation: (:ˈjaroslaf).〕 12 October 1921 – 13 September 2001) was a former World No. 1 amateur tennis champion as well as being an ice hockey player. He left Czechoslovakia in 1949 and travelled as an Egyptian citizen before becoming a citizen of Great Britain in 1959, where he died in 2001. In 1954, he became the first and, to date, only player with African citizenship to win the Wimbledon Championships.
==Tennis career==
Drobný began playing tennis at age five and, as a ball-boy, watched world-class players including compatriot Karel Koželuh.〔 He played in his first Wimbledon Championship in 1938, losing in the first round to Alejandro Russell. After World War II Drobný was good enough to be able to beat Jack Kramer in the fourth round of the 1946 Wimbledon Championship before losing in the semi-finals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wimbledon.com/en_GB/scores/draws/archive/pdfs/1946_MS_A4.pdf )〕 In 1951 and 1952 he won the French Open, defeating in the final Eric Sturgess and then retaining the title the following year against Frank Sedgman. Drobný was the losing finalist at Wimbledon in both 1949 and 1952 before finally winning it in 1954 by beating Ken Rosewall for the title, the first left-hander to capture Wimbledon since Norman Brookes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wimbledon.com/en_GB/scores/draws/archive/1954/MS/rFs1.html )
He won three singles titles at the Italian Championships (1950, 1951 and 1953).〔
Drobný was ranked World No. 1 in 1954 by Lance Tingay of the Daily Telegraph.〔 He has also won the French Open doubles title in 1948, playing with Lennart Bergelin, and he won the mixed doubles title paired with Patricia Canning Todd at 1948 French Open.
Drobný held the distinction of having competed at Wimbledon under four different national identities. In 1938, at the age of 16, he started for his native Czechoslovakia. A year later, following the German invasion and occupation of Czechoslovakia, he was officially representing the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. After World War II, he started at Wimbledon yet again as Czechoslovakian but chose to defect from the communist regime in 1949 – he left Czechoslovakia for good on 11 July 1949.
