Career

Gould twice competed in the main draw at the Wimbledon Championships, in 1994 and 1996. Although he was unable to progress past the first round in either, he did manage to take world number 26 Jaime Yzaga to five sets in the 1994 Wimbledon Championships.[1] He earned a call up to the British squad in the 1996 Davis Cup competition, for a tie against Slovenia in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.[2] With the side weakened by the withdrawal of Tim Henman due to illness, Gould got an opportunity in the fifth match, which was a dead rubber.[3] He defeated his opponent Borut Urh in three sets.

gollark: This is cool at 2x speed.
gollark: Or humans or some other species will beat entropy, hack the universe and stop anything from dying ever.
gollark: I mean, ultimately, long after the last stars burn out, the fuel of giant stars of the bright, early universe we live in having long been exhausted, giving way to red dwarves which will themselves slowly fade to black, the matter in them having decayed (possibly), there will be nothing but slowly evaporating black holes. And eventually even these will vanish, leaving nothing but electromagnetic radiation being slowly redshifted, with no energy gradients able to sustain life.
gollark: Sure!
gollark: I mean, death won't happen forever.
