Jerzy Janowicz Jr. (Polish pronunciation: [ˈjɛʐɨ jaˈnɔvʲit͡ʂ]; born 13 November 1990) is a Polish professional tennis player who is the current highest-ranked male Polish player. Runner-up in two Junior Grand Slam tournaments, Janowicz rose to fame on the pro circuit following his run to the final of the 2012 Paris Masters, during which he defeated five top-20 players, including US Open champion Andy Murray and world No. 9 Janko Tipsarević. The run made him the first man to reach the final of a Masters tournament as a qualifier since Guillermo Cañas in 2007, and the first unseeded man to make the final at the Paris Masters since Andrei Pavel in 2003. He fell in the final to David Ferrer in straight sets. However, the run to the 2012 Paris Masters final enabled Janowicz to become the Polish No. 1 and crack the top 30, later reaching a career-high of world No. 14 in August 2013. Janowicz then became the first Polish man to reach a Grand Slam semifinal at Wimbledon 2013, losing in four sets to eventual champion Andy Murray. In 2013, he was awarded the Gold Cross of Merit by Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski. His current coach is Günter Bresnik and his strength and conditioning coach is Piotr Grabia. Previously Janowicz was coached by the Finnish former tennis player Kim Tiilikainen. Janowicz has achieved victories over Andy Murray, Lleyton Hewitt, Dominic Thiem, Gael Monfils, Nick Kyrgios, Tommy Haas, David Nalbandian, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Gilles Simon, Richard Gasquet, Grigor Dimitrov, Radek Štěpánek, Janko Tipsarević, Jürgen Melzer, Marin Čilić, Nicolás Almagro, Roberto Bautista Agut, and Ernests Gulbis.
