1989 for Austria, International Tournament in Brussels, Belgium (Athlete, 23 Apr 2012)

He broke both of his legs in a Para skiing competition two weeks before the 1992 Paralympic Winter Games in Tignes. (itftennis.com, 31 Mar 2020)

He took up the sport in 1989 at age 27 at a rehabilitation centre in Tyrol, Austria. (Athlete, 20 Jul 2016)

"When I had my accident, I didn't know you could do any sports in a wheelchair. At the rehab centre I learnt that I could do basketball, table tennis and ski racing. I liked them all, but wheelchair tennis was the one I enjoyed the most because you can do it with able-bodied people and it's a social sport. Tennis was the best thing for me because everything is united, I think. You need strength, fitness, wit, and when you master all this, you decide in your head how good you really are."

"I do the sport not because of the money, but because I like it." (sport.tirol, 09 Oct 2020)
