Luke Smith (born 25 October 1976) is a former professional tennis player from Australia.[1]

Career[edit]

Smith played collegiate tennis with the UNLV Rebels and won both the NCAA Division I singles and doubles titles in 1997. He defeated Southern California's George Bastl in the singles final. In the doubles final, Smith and Tim Blenkiron beat Bastl and Kyle Spencer.[2] In 1997 he also made the third round of an ATP Tour tournament in Washington, D.C., with wins over Mahesh Bhupathi and Lionel Roux.[3]

Smith lost in the opening round in both of his appearances in the main draw of a Grand Slam tournament, to Marcelo Ríos at the 1997 US Open and Andrei Medvedev at the 1998 Australian Open.[3] He twice reached the third round of the Australian Open men's doubles, with Lleyton Hewitt at the 1998 Australian Open and Paul Baccanello at the 2001 Australian Open.[3]
