Amit Naor (Hebrew: עמית נאור; born 25 July 1967) is a former professional tennis player from Israel.
Naor was born in Rehovot, a city in the Central District of Israel.
A right-handed player, Naor reached a best singles ranking on tour of 245 in the world.[1]
Most of his Grand Prix/ATP Tour main draw appearances came at the Tel Aviv Open, where he made the round of 16 on three occasions, most notably beating third-seeded Vijay Amritraj in the 1985 edition.[2] From 1986 he competed as a professional and he finished up on tour in 1991.[3]
Naor now works as a sports agent, until 2017 for Creative Artists Agency (CAA). While an independent agent in 2003, he signed a deal with sixteen-year-old Novak Djokovic and in 2008 joined CAA.[4] Djokovic left for IMG in 2012, but Naor has gone on to represent other top players, including Tomas Berdych, Milos Raonic and Dominic Thiem.[3]
In 2017, Naor was fired by CAA over harassment claims made by a female agent working for the company.[5][6]
