Career


Aldrich won the first of nine career doubles titles in 1988 at Charleston, South Carolina.[2]

In 1990, Aldrich won the men's doubles titles at both the Australian Open and the US Open, partnering his fellow South African player Danie Visser. The pair were also doubles runners-up at Wimbledon that year.[3]

1990 also saw Aldrich win his first (and only) top-level singles title at Newport, Rhode Island.[4][5] His career-high ranking in singles was world No. 64, which he achieved in 1988.[6]

Aldrich won the final doubles title of his career in 1992 in Johannesburg.[7]
