Rodney George Laver, dit Rod Laver, né le 9 août 1938 à Rockhampton (Queensland), est un joueur de tennis professionnel australien. Il détient le record de 200 titres remportés en carrière, dont onze titres du Grand Chelem et huit titres du Grand Chelem professionnel. Laver est le second joueur de l'histoire à avoir réalisé le Grand Chelem, après Donald Budge en 1938, et le seul à l'avoir effectué à deux reprises : en 1962, en tant qu'amateur (réalisant ainsi un Super Grand-Chelem puisqu'il a également gagné la Coupe Davis cette année-là), puis en 1969 en tant que professionnel. Il a de plus accompli ce qu'on appelait le Grand Chelem professionnel (victoires dans le Wembley Pro, le French Pro et le U.S. Pro Championships) en 1967. En savoir plus sur Wikipédia
