Dustin Brown: From the professional to the Bundesliga star-a tennis life full of passion!
The Cologne tennis player Dustin Brown, 40 years old, is currently busy training for the upcoming Bundesliga season 2025. On the sanddies on Olympiaweg, the double specialist of the KTHC Stadion RW does his best to stay active in the German tennis Oberhaus. Brown, who ended his active professional career in 2022, no longer misses traveling and enjoys making spontaneous plans.
In retrospect for his impressive 23 years in professional sports, Brown is proud of his success. Among other things, he became known for his legendary victory against Rafael Nadal, who caused a sensation in 2015. Although he had to end his career due to physical symptoms, he still feels comfortable at the tennis court. In training, he focuses on single matches, but plans to stay active in doubles in order to give the Bundesliga the necessary pep. His regular training sessions should keep him fit and help him win in the upcoming matches, because the competition is high - the tour has significantly professionalized and players are now earning better.The development of a legend
Brown's style of play not only brings him respect, but also admiration of colleagues and fans. In his career, he wanted to get top players out of their comfort zone, which often led to exciting matches. "I never felt a special moment when I got to the ATP tour," said Brown. Rather, it was the confidence in his skills that helped him keep up with the best.
From the beginnings of his tennis game at the age of only five years in Germany to the years in Jamaica, where he has lived since 1996, it was a long journey. He took the first steps of his professional career in the van, where he often traveled with others and covered their rackets to make a little money. In 2010 he changed nationality due to problems with the Jamaican tennis association and began playing for Germany. With the first Challenger title in 2009 in Samarqand, he laid the foundation for his success.
a feeling for the future
In the period after his active career, Brown has no concrete plans. However, he would like to remain active in the tennis world, possibly through real estate investments and management advice that has been interested in it for a long time. His advice on future generations of players could not be clearer: "Believe your dreams and never give up." These words reflect the philosophy that accompanied him through his entire career.
With previous successes-including a total of 3.13 million US dollars prize money, two ATP double titles and 64th place in the individual ranking-Brown sees himself not only as a player, but also as a mentor. As the oldest player in his team, he describes the RW team as a family and likes to give technical and tactical tips. While he is preparing for the coming Bundesliga season, he remains an inspiring figure in Cologne tennis, which shows that the passion for the game never goes out.
