Paul was born on June 12th 1979 in Adelaide, South Australia. He started his professional career much later than Hewitt and the other Australians, due to a back injury that kept him away from the tennis courts for over two years. Paul has reached twice the top 150 in singles, unluckily he fell back because of injuries. This year he will aim for the top 100 for the third time; his third round at the Australian Open doubles was a good start. Playing two weeks and practicing one week should keep Paul injury free. Paul is one of the players of topseed.net who answers all the e-mails he gets, so don’t hesitate to address some of your tennis questions to him.
