Australian tennis legend Neale Fraser, a former world no.1 who won 19 Grand Slam titles during the amateur era, has died. He was 91.

The big-serving left-hander won both the US Open (1959, 1960) and Wimbledon (1960) singles championships and was ranked the best men’s player in the world in 1959.

But he enjoyed even more success in the doubles arena, where he won a further 16 Grand Slams.

He also represented Australia as a player in the Davis Cup from 1955-63, before captaining the team for more than 20 years after his retirement, leading the team to four titles.

Fraser was inducted into the Australian Tennis Hall of Fame in 1994, 10 years after he had been added to the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

He was also inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame in 1986, and chaired that same organisation from 1997 until 2005.

More to come.
