Paulina Peled (born 20 April 1950) is an Israeli former professional tennis player. She was known as Paulina Peisachov before marriage.

Biography[edit]

Born in Lithuania, Peled moved to Israel at the age of 16.[1]

She competed at the 1969 Maccabiah Games for Israel in women's singles.[2]

Peled studied in the United States in the early 1970s at Arizona State University, where she also played college tennis.[3]

Returning to Israel, she became the first Israeli woman to win Israel's International Tennis Championship for two decades when she claimed the title in 1974.[4]

At the 1974 Asian Games in Tehran, she won a gold medal for Israel in the mixed doubles and a silver medal in the singles.

Peled made the second round of Wimbledon on three occasions. This included 1974, when while in the country she won the Chichester Tennis Tournament with a final win over Sue Barker and she also won the Kent Championships that year.[5]

She joined the professional tour in 1975 and was a regular member of Israel's Federation Cup team for the remainder of the decade, appearing in a total of 14 ties.
