Markus Tabbert

Markus Tabbert (Born August 28th, 1989) is a German Professional Tennis player. Tabbert has been a constant threat on the clay court since entering the professional scene at the start of the 2011 calendar year. Arguably the most dangerous clay court player of this generation.undefined

Biography
A clay court specialist through and through, Markus picked up the torch left by his fellow German, and coach, Falken Klein by dominating his country’s Major. Without a single loss on Munich’s Clay Courts, Markus has grabbed four titles since becoming pro at age 21. His career has not been without concern. Knee injuries have plagued the young hare over the last three years, resulting in him withdrawing before the Munich Open in 2014 and 2016 due to injuries. Missing most of the 2016 season caused his Ranking to plunge, but he claims to be healthy once again. We look to see if he can maintain his dominance on clay and if he can challenge the field outside of the clay tournaments.

Playstyle
Tabbert's most striking skill is his mobility on clay. Watching the hare slide around on the court with such confidence and grace is enough to unsettle an opponent. His explosive topspin groundstrokes come full advantage on the clay court, forcing opponents on the defense.
