Sándor Noszály (Hungarian: Noszály Sándor, [ˈnosaːj ˈʃaːndor]; born March 16, 1972 in Budapest) is a retired tennis player from Hungary, who is a five times Hungarian Champion in singles and 16 times adding the doubles.
Noszály qualified Hungary for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Four years earlier, in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics he was partnering László Markovits in the doubles draw, where they fell in the first round. He was the member of the Hungary Davis Cup team who advanced to the World Group in 1993 and 1995 where he won two singles against Argentines Guillermo Pérez-Roldán and Alberto Mancini and one victory over Australia (Todd Woodbridge) respectively. In July 1995 he advanced to the quarterfinal of Kitzbühel Open by defeating Carlos Moyá in the previous round losing to clay-specialist Thomas Muster. Three months later he reached the Semifinal of the 1995 Bucharest Open, surpassing Albert Costa and Sergi Bruguera, facing Thomas Muster in a re-match, who overcame him in two sets. It was that time when he broke into the ATP top 100 peaking at World No. 95.
He was born to sr. Sándor Noszály, a coach and former high jump athlete and to Anna Steitz, a PE teacher and 2-time national champion high jumper. His sister Andrea Noszály (b. 1970) became a professional tennis player as well and represented Hungary 5 times in the Fed Cup. He graduated in 1990 at the Petõfi Sándor Gimnázium in Budapest.
