mansour bahrami (persian: منصور بهرامی) (born april 26, 1956) is a professional tennis player. he has held dual french and iranian nationality since 1989.
he never maximised his potential in singles, he became a successful doubles player who even reached the french open doubles final in 1989 in partnership with eric winogradsky. his weakness and indeed his strength was an inescapable thirst for providing a crowd with a show. he often lost in the early rounds of singles tournaments due to his tendency to play trick shots from the off or when he was bored with winning too easily. he was able to play more seriously in doubles where he felt that he could not be seen to be letting his partner down.
