From 1981 to 1985 he competed in nine Davis Cup ties for Japan, including World Group relegation play-offs against France and Spain. All but one of his 10 Davis Cup matches came in doubles.
As a professional player he had his best performance at the Tokyo Outdoor in 1982, making the round of 16 of the Grand Prix tournament, with wins over Larry Stefanki and Morris Strode.[1] He won a Sapporo Challenger event in 1986.
Yonezawa now works as a tennis coach and helped train Kei Nishikori when he was a junior.[2]

gollark: Okay, sure, you can ignore that for Go itself, if we had Go-with-an-alternate-compiler-but-identical-language-bits it would be irrelevant.
gollark: I can't easily come up with a *ton* of examples of this, but stuff like generics being special-cased in for three types (because guess what, you *do* actually need them), certain basic operations returning either one or two values depending on how you interact with them, quirks of nil/closed channel operations, the standard library secretly having a `recover` mechanism and using it like exceptions a bit, multiple return values which are not first-class at all and which are used as a horrible, horrible way to do error handling, and all of go assembly, are just inconsistent and odd.
gollark: And inconsistent.
gollark: But... Google is hiring some of the smartest programmers around, can they *not* make a language which is not this, well, stupid? Dumbed-down?
gollark: It has some very nice things for the cloud-thing/CLI tool/server usecase; the runtime is pretty good and for all garbage collection's flaws manual memory management is annoying, and the standard library is pretty extensive.
