Glenn Michibata (born 13 June 1962) is a former professional tennis player and former head coach of the Princeton University Tigers tennis team. Currently, Michibata is Director of Elite and Tournament Training for the Princeton Tennis Program.
Prior to turning pro, Michibata was an All American player at Pepperdine University in the 1981, 1982 and 1983 seasons.
An ATP touring professional from 1983 to 1993, the right-handed Michibata earned a career-high singles ranking of World No. 48 in April 1986. His best results were semi-finals appearances at the 1985 outdoor Tokyo, 1989 Wellington, and 1989 Schenectady Grand Prix events.
Michibata reached the 2nd round in all four Grand Slam tournaments, but never further. His first Grand Slam appearance was at the 1983 US Open, when he lost in the 2nd Round to Pat Cash. His last was also at the US Open in 1991, when he lost in the 1st Round to Nuno Marques. Michibata only played all four Grand Slams in the same year in 1989, reaching the 2nd Round at the French Open and US Open and losing in the 1st Round at the Australian Open and Wimbledon.
Michibata had more success as a doubles player. Much of that success came with fellow Canadian Grant Connell, including four titles. In 1990, Michibata and Connell were finalists at the Australian Open. Michibata's highest doubles ranking was #5 on 8 July 1991 after he and Connell reached the semi-finals of both the French Open and Wimbledon. Coincidentally, they lost both of those semi-finals to John Fitzgerald and Anders Järryd.
