Biography

Born in Madrid, Rodríguez began on the professional tour in 1982.

He twice made the second round of Grand Prix tournaments and on both occasions was beaten by the number one seed. At the 1985 Stockholm Open he progressed when France's Henri Leconte retired hurt with the Spaniard two games from victory, then was beaten in the second round by John McEnroe.[1] He lost to Stefan Edberg in the second round of the 1986 Swedish Open, having earlier defeated Craig Campbell.[2]

His best performance on the Grand Prix circuit in doubles came at the 1986 Athens Open, where he and José Clavet reached the semi-finals.[3]

At Challenger level he won one title, at Hanko, Finland in 1986, which he secured with a win over world number 55 Jan Gunnarsson in the final.[4]

1. 1986 Hanko, Finland Clay Jan Gunnarsson 2–6, 6–1, 6–2
gollark: 2.5" ones do tend to be more expensive per TB.
gollark: SSDs are surprisingly robust. I've (anecdotally) had one working fine for standard desktop use for about four years and it seems to still be fine (SMART says it's still 95% okay or something).
gollark: (The glorious Intel 660p)
gollark: $100 can also get a 1TB low-end NVMe one, soooo…
gollark: Or £50 for a generic 500GB SATA one which is going to be basically the same.
