Marinko Matosevic started having tennis lessons at age 10 and has set his sights on achieving a top 100 ranking. The Croatian born right-hander broke into the top 200 in mid-2009.
The son of Branko and Ljubica, Marinko’s favourite player is Marat Safin because of his dominating game and the fact he was able to entertain and show his human side on the tennis court.
Marinko considers his strengths to be a solid groundstroke game and a sound volley.
His favourite tournament is the Kawana Challenger because the weather is always fine. He enjoys Italian and Greek food, his favourite movie is The Godfather and he enjoys playing soccer, basketball and poker in his spare time.
