Early Life

Goran Ivanišević was born on September 13, 1971 in Split, Croatia in what was then Yugoslavia. He is the son of Gorana and Srđan. Growing up, Ivanišević was trained in tennis by Jelena Genčić.

ATP Tour

In 1988, Ivanišević turned professional. Later in the year, with Rüdiger Haas in Frankfurt, he won his first career doubles title. Ivanišević went on to reach the quarterfinals at the Australian Open in 1989. The next year, he made it to the French Open singles quarterfinals and the French Open doubles final, the latter with Petr Korda. Ivanišević also won his first career singles title, at the Stuttgart Open, and helped Yugoslavia win the World Team Cup. He quickly established a reputation for his hard-hitting left-handed serves, as well as for his short temper. Ivanišević had a terrific year in 1992, when he won the Australian Men's Hard Court Championships, reached his first Wimbledon final, and won bronze medals in both singles and doubles at the Summer Olympics in Barcelona. He reached the Wimbledon final again in 1994, the same year he reached his career-high ranking of world No. 2 in the ATP rankings. In 1995, Ivanišević won the Grand Slam Cup, and in 1996 he won the Hopman Cup with Iva Majoli. He returned to world No. 2 in the ATP rankings in 1997, but fell down to No. 15 by year's end.

In 1998, Ivanišević made it to his third career Wimbledon final, and again lost to Pete Sampras. The following year, he reached the French Open doubles final for the second time in his career, this time with Jeff Tarango. However, that year, and over the next two years, Ivanišević struggled with a shoulder injury that hampered his playing. He made an incredible comeback in 2001 when he entered Wimbledon as a wild card and ended up winning the tournament. In the final, which lasted over three hours, Ivanišević defeated Patrick Rafter in five sets. Ivanišević thus became the lowest-ranked player ever (world No. 125) to win Wimbledon. It would be the last ATP tournament victory of his career, as he retired in 2002 for shoulder surgery and retired again, permanently, in 2004. However, despite not playing, Ivanišević was included as a member of the winning Croatian team in the 2005 Davis Cup.

Coaching Career

In 2013, Ivanišević began coaching Croatian tennis player Marin Čilić, who was at the time in a doping-related suspension. Under Ivanišević, Čilić went on to win the US Open in 2014. After the two parted ways in 2016, Ivanišević started coaching Czech player Tomáš Berdych. He was ultimately fired by Berdych in mid-2017. Ivanišević subsequently coached Canadian Milos Raonic from 2018 to 2019. He had his greatest coaching successes with Serbian star Novak Djokovic, whom he coached from 2019 to 2014 and led to nine major titles. Ivanišević went on to coach Elena Rybakina for a brief period in 2025, and then Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Investments

Following his retirement, Ivanišević turned much of his time to investing in real estate and construction. In 2003, he completed construction on a 65-unit luxury apartment building in his hometown of Split, but the project sunk his company Sport Line into debt. A few years later, Ivanišević joined an investment group that purchased stakes in the Karlovačka bank. Ivanišević continued having financial troubles after that, however, and in 2013 his company Sport Line filed for bankruptcy.

Among his other notable investments, Ivanišević purchased an abandoned seaside property in his hometown of Split as well as an undeveloped plot of land on the city's outskirts. The acquisitions were controversial because the city had intended the land to be for public use. Ivanišević successfully petitioned the city to build his dream villa, which was completed in 2006. However, he never ended up moving into the home, violating his agreement with the city of Split. and in early 2008 he put it on the market.

Personal Life

In the early 1990s, Ivanišević dated Croatian model Daniela Mihalić. They split after five years together. Ivanišević went on to date another model, Tatjana Dragović, starting in 1998. They wed in 2009, and had two children named Amber and Emanuel before divorcing in 2013. With his second wife, Nives Čanović, Ivanišević has a son named Oliver.
