  • Peter Burwash
    Hall of Fame Class of 2010 Peter Burwash Bringing tennis to the world is the legacy of Peter Burwash – as a player, coach, writer, motivational speaker and founder and owner of Peter Burwash International (PBI), which has brought tennis to millions of players. It all started after a neighbor tossed away her tennis racquet when Peter was 12-years-old in Canada, “There was a tournament at the tennis courts near me. The under-13’s only had three people and were looking for a fourth.” Without even knowing how the scoring worked Peter won the tournament. “I raced home on my bike to tell my mother, but she didn’t believe me and called the woman across the street and said, ‘I’m sorry but I think my son stole your trophy.” A truly fated moment, “My goal was to play professional hockey but life changes directions and it’s been a blessing,” Peter is one of the original members of the ATP and during his pro days earned 19 international singles and doubles titles. “In those days we went out for 48 straight weeks because you couldn’t afford to come home,” Peter explains, “It’s all thanks to Issy Sharp for giving me he $3,600 I needed for plane fare. It was very generous of him.” Peter is the former No. 1 player from Canada and was a regular participant on the Canadian Davis Cup Team. Success on the court continued after the pro tour, he earned the No. 1 ranking in Hawaii for three years and in 1985 a ranking of No.
