My name is Van Winitsky. I’m a professional tennis player living and teaching in Delray Beach, Florida. I played for a number of years on the pro tennis tour. My highest ranking was #7 in doubles and #35 in singles 1978-1983.

I won three singles titles and nine doubles titles.

I won the 1981 Tel Aviv Open with one of my doubles partners Steve Meister of North Miami Beach. I’ve beaten or taken sets from a number of legends in my time, from Stan Smith to Ivan Lendl. I almost took a set from John McEnroe in 1984 but ended up losing 7-5. I have wonderful memories of my years in tennis, and I am still as enthused about playing tennis today as I was when I played on the circuit. I enjoy giving tennis lessons to adults and kids in the Delray Beach area.

So if you are a competitive player who wants to advance your game, a club player looking for some doubles lessons, an up and coming junior who wants some tips from a veteran or a newbie / novice wanting to get a few tips on your doubles or singles game, I’m only a phone call away at 561.921.7121!
