Lu Yen-hsun (Chinese: 盧彥勳; pinyin: Lú Yànxūn; born 14 August 1983) is a Taiwanese professional tennis player. He goes by the nickname Rendy. His favorite surface is hard court, though several of his ATP Tour career highlights have come on grass courts, including reaching the quarterfinals of the 2010 Wimbledon Championships.
Lu was an accomplished junior player, reaching as high as no. 3 in the ITF junior world singles rankings in February 2001 (and no. 9 in doubles). In his junior career, he compiled a singles win/loss record of 80–37 (63–34 in doubles) and defeated a handful of future ATP stars, including Robin Söderling, Mario Ančić, and Philipp Kohlschreiber.
Junior Slam results:
Australian Open: 1R (2001)
French Open: 1R (2000)
Wimbledon: 1R (2000)
US Open: 2R (2000)
In 2004, Lu became the first player from Taiwan to break into ATP Top 100, thanks to a solid performance in the Challenger circuit in the first half of 2004. He started to participate in many tour-level events. Although he suffered many defeats, his effort yielded some good wins. The most notable win came on the grass court in the Queen's Club Championships, where he gained his first top-10 win by defeating then world no. 3 Guillermo Coria.
