Biography

Born in East Germany, Kirchhübel and his family moved to Hanover when he was seven.[1] After school he studied at a Medical College in Hanover, then worked as a Medizinalassistenten before completing his PhD at Hannover Medical School.[2]

Kirchhübel didn't begin competing in professional tennis until the age of 28.[1] In 1980 he partnered with Robert Reininger to win the Sofia Open, a tournament on the Grand Prix tennis circuit.[3] It was in doubles that he made his only Grand Slam appearance, which was at the 1981 Wimbledon Championships with Klaus Eberhard.[4]

In 1983 he returned to medicine and since 1992 has worked in Wolfratshausen as an orthopedist.[2]

gollark: And I think <@111572502722920448> said something about making their own sandbox thingy. They definitely have an old and kind of bad but working one available.
gollark: You can look at the insanely complex partly self-modifying mess known as potatOS for inspiration.
gollark: What works better is just preventing access to directories or files via editing the `fs` API.
gollark: <@438023494953861142> Look, your thing is honestly not great at actually preventing access to anything, and is not a convincing copy of the shell. Also, you can open `lua` (probably) to just do `fs.delete` or whatever.
gollark: It's probably, to be fair, just wrapping peripheral.
