'''Martin Willem Verkerk''' ({{IPA|nl|mɑrtɪn vɛrkɛrk}}; born 31 October 1978) is a retired professional Dutch [[tennis]] player. He reached the final of the [[2003 French Open – Men's singles|French Open]] in 2003 and achieved a career-high singles ranking of No. 14 in September 2003. During his career, he won two ATP singles titles.

== Early life ==
Verkerk began playing [[tennis]] at the age of seven, playing in local tournaments and training with his parents. He played in a tennis facility in his hometown of [[Alphen aan den Rijn]], Netherlands, where his talent was recognized by local coaches, and he soon had the opportunity to train with many better players. He later won the 18 and Under Dutch title in 1995.<ref>{{Cite web|title = Martin Verkerk|url = http://www.laurense.com/TENNIS_ACADEMY-Team_of_Head_coaches-Martin_Verkerk.html|website = laurense.com|access-date = 2016-02-22|url-status = dead|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160303013710/http://www.laurense.com/TENNIS_ACADEMY-Team_of_Head_coaches-Martin_Verkerk.html|archive-date = 3 March 2016|df = dmy-all}}</ref>

==Career==
In 2003, playing in only his third [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] event and ranked 46, Verkerk reached the final of the French Open. Along the way, he beat [[Željko Krajan]], [[Luis Horna]], [[Vince Spadea]] and [[Rainer Schüttler]] before overcoming experienced clay court players [[Carlos Moyá]] (seeded 4th) and [[Guillermo Coria]] (seeded 7th). In the final, he lost to [[Spanish people|Spaniard]] [[Juan Carlos Ferrero]] in straight sets.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title = Martin Verkerk {{!}} Overview {{!}} ATP World Tour {{!}} Tennis|url = http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/players/martin-verkerk/v232/overview|website = ATP World Tour|access-date = 2016-02-22|language = en}}</ref>

His unexpected run at the French Open as an [[Underdog (competition)|underdog]] and his expressive on-court antics made him popular in the Netherlands. The final was watched by even more households in the Netherlands than when his countryman [[Richard Krajicek]] won [[Wimbledon (tennis)|Wimbledon]] in 1996. {{Citation needed|date=July 2020}} However, hampered by various injuries and [[Infectious mononucleosis|mononucleosis]], Verkerk was unable to reproduce similar results during the rest of his career, never advancing beyond the third round in any subsequent [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slams]].

During his career, he won two titles and reached the quarter-finals of the [[2003 Italian Open – Men's singles|2003 Rome Masters]]. Verkerk played a close match against [[Roger Federer]] at the [[2003 BNP Paribas Masters – Singles|2003 Paris Masters]], losing in three tiebreak sets after holding four match points.<ref name=":0" />

== Playing style ==

Verkerk's game was based on powerful [[serve (tennis)|serves]] and [[backhand]]s. He used a [[single-handed backhand]] and his favorite surface was [[Clay court|clay]].<ref>{{Cite web|title = We Are Tennis – We Are Tennis: Get all the news of tennis, players & players, tournaments.
