Matt Anger (born June 20, 1963) is an American former professional tennis player. He is the former head men's tennis coach at the University of Washington. He is the current coach of tennis professional Clément Chidekh.

Professional tennis career

Anger grew up in Pleasanton, California, and played at Amador Valley High School.[1] He went on to be named the national 16-and-under singles champion in 1979 and to win the 1981 junior Wimbledon boys' singles title, resulting in a No. 1 ranking in the world by Tennis Magazine. He played collegiate tennis at USC from 1982 to 1984.[2] He was a three-time All-American in these three years and was a Pac-10 singles finalist in 1983.[3] In the same year, he led the USC Trojans to a third-place NCAA finish. The next season, he won the Pac-10 doubles championship, was a Pac-10 singles semifinalist, and helped USC win the Pac-10 conference championship. After this season, he turned to professional tennis.

The right-handed Anger reached his highest singles ranking on the ATP Tour on February 24, 1986, when he became the world No. 23. He won one singles (Johannesburg in 1985) and two doubles titles (Tokyo outdoor in 1986 and Brisbane in 1987) during his career.

Retirement from the Tour

Anger retired from the tour in 1991 and is currently the men's tennis coach at the University of Washington. He resides in Clyde Hill, Washington with his wife, Kristin, and two children.[citation needed]

Coaching career

Anger initially joined the coaching staff at the University of Southern California. He then moved to the University of Washington where he became the head coach in 1995. He is the most successful coach in Washington history with 371 wins. His teams have missed the NCAA championships only twice and have had five runs to the NCAA round of 16 since 2001.[citation needed]

Anger and his team have had a winning record in 21 of 22 seasons. He was named Pac-10 Coach of the Year in 2005 when the team won its first-ever Pac-10 title. Six singles players have earned All-American honors under his coaching and 11 have earned year-end top-50 rankings. Additionally, player Alex Vlaški won the 2003 All-American Championships – the first title for a Husky since 1924 – under his coaching.[citation needed]

Anger was inducted into the USTA Northern California Tennis Hall of Fame in 2005 and the ITA Hall of Fame in 2014.
