Biography
A right-handed player from Plovdiv, Pampoulov appeared in 15 Davis Cup ties for Bulgaria, from 1969 to 1982. His regular doubles partner was twin brother Bozhidar, who unlike his brother was a left-hander. As a combination they won a Bulgarian record five Davis Cup rubbers.[1]
Pampoulov and his brother were in the main draw of the doubles at the 1973 Wimbledon Championships but conceded a walkover. As a singles player he reached the third qualifying round for the 1975 French Open and also featured in Wimbledon qualifying during his career.[2]
His family have continued to pursue the sport, with nephew Luben and niece Elena also competing professionally.
gollark: Videos are generally kind of too slow-paced to actively hold my attention.
gollark: I watch longer (~30 minute) videos quite often, but mostly just put them on in the background when doing other stuff.
gollark: The UK doesn't really seem to have spoofing or nuisance calls anywhere near as much of the US, and I'm not sure why, given that it's technically possible in both.
gollark: The phone network really needs fixing to *not* allow spoofing.
