Jason Murray Kubler (/ˈkuːblər/ KOOB-lər;[3] born 19 May 1993) is an Australian professional tennis player. He has a career-high ATP singles ranking of No. 63 achieved on 24 April 2023 and a doubles ranking of No. 27 achieved on 22 May 2023. Kubler's career highlight came at the 2023 Australian Open, where he won his first Grand Slam doubles title as a wildcard alongside compatriot Rinky Hijikata.[4]
Despite a promising junior career, which included the junior world No. 1 ranking and comparisons to Rafael Nadal,[5][6][7][8] Kubler has spent the majority of his professional career on the lower circuits due to a hereditary knee condition that results in weakened meniscus around the joints.[9] The condition has plagued Kubler throughout his career, resulting in six knee surgeries.[10] Kubler also spent four years of his professional career playing exclusively on clay courts to avoid further structural damage to his knees.[9]
