My Take
Lu Yen-hsun earns my respect for the simple reason that he carried a whole tennis-small nation on his back. Holding the most Challenger Tour titles in history isn't glamorous; it's the stubborn grind of winning at the level nobody televises. His 2010 Wimbledon quarterfinal run, flag of Taiwan on grass, was a genuine breakthrough moment. Known affectionately as Rendy Lu, he later moved into coaching to pass it forward, and was named among Asia's most influential Taiwanese. He's exactly the self-made type I gravitate toward: one body, one racquet, and a road carved out by sheer persistence.
Overview
Lu Yen-hsun (Chinese: 盧彥勳; born 14 August 1983) is a Taiwanese tennis coach and a former professional player, who goes by the nickname Rendy Lu. He won the most titles on the ATP Challenger Tour in tennis history. His favorite surface was hardcourt, though several of his ATP Tour career highlights came on grass, including reaching the quarterfinals of the 2010 Wimbledon Championships.
