Scott Melville
Scott Melville (born August 4, 1966) is a former professional tennis player from the United States.
Melville enjoyed most of his tennis success while playing doubles because of injuries[clarification needed]. During his career, he won nine doubles titles and finished runner-up an additional seven times. Partnering Rick Leach in doubles, Melville finished runner-up at the 1995 Wimbledon Championships. He achieved a career-high doubles ranking of World No. 17 in 1996. He is now a coach and has coached many college level tennis players.
Melville resided in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida when on the tour.
Melville played for the USC Trojans in college. In 1987, Melville and Rick Leach won the NCAA tennis doubles with an 18–1 record. Melville then became the no.1 singles player in college tennis by beating David Wheaton. In 1988, he partnered with Eric Amend to win the Pac-10 Doubles title and the ITA National Indoor Doubles Championship.
In 1989, Melville and Jeff Brown entered the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) circuit. In 1990, they qualified for the New Haven Volvo International Tournament ranked 400th in the world. In that tournament, they pulled off upset wins against bigger stars and made it all the way to the finals. There, they won over Goran Ivanišević and Petr Korda, 2–6, 7–5, 6–0. As a result, they climbed into the top 100 of the world rankings, won the $1 million grand prize, and qualified for that year's U.S. Open. There, they defeated the duo of Pete Sampras and Jim Courier to advance to the Round of 16.
In 1992, Melville and Patrick Galbraith won the ATP tournament held in Nice, France.
