Biography

Kaneko, a left-handed player from Tokyo, began playing tennis at the age of eight.

Most of his ATP Tour main draw appearances were as a wildcard at his home events, the Japan Open and Tokyo Indoor. The only exception was the 1996 Indonesia Open, which he entered as a qualifier. [1] He made the second round of the Japan Open on three occasions.

His four Davis Cup ties for Japan included a five-set loss to Todd Woodbridge in 1996 and a decisive fifth rubber win over Uzbekistan in Tashkent in 1997.

He was a member of the silver medal-winning Japanese team at 1998 Asian Games in Bangkok. [2]

Kenneth Carlsen is a Danish former professional tennis player, who was active between 1992 and 2007. Carlsen played left-handed with a one-handed backhand. His greatest asset was his powerful serve, and his game was therefore best suited to fast surfaces. For most of his long career, Carlsen was Denmark's best tennis player, and consistently among the few Danish players playing at the highest international level. He was awarded as best Danish "Tennis Player of the Year" seven times by the Danish Tennis Federation. Two times the award went to the Danish Davis Cup team, of which Kenneth Carlsen until 2003 was a central part.
