[2] With his elder brother Peter as his partner, Moraing competed in the men's doubles as well. [2] The pair were eliminated in the opening round by Sergio Casal and Emilio Sánchez. [2]

He also took part in both the singles and doubles draws of the 1989 Australian Open. [2] In the singles he had a win in the opening round, over Thierry Tulasne, who retired in the third set with sickness, after losing the first two sets. [3] He was unable to progress past fourth seed Stefan Edberg in his next match, losing in straight sets. [2] The West German didn't do as well in the doubles, with he and partner Torben Theine losing in the first round. [2]

Outside of Grand Slams, Moraing had his best performance on tour at the 1988 German Open, where he beat the 42nd ranked player in the world Eric Jelen.
