Nikita Kryvonos (Ukrainian: Микита Кривонос|{{transliteration|uk|ukrainian|Mykyta Kryvonos; born September 1, 1986) is an American former professional tennis player.[1]
Born in Ukraine, Kryvonos moved with his family from Donetsk to New York City at the age of 13.[2]
Kryvonos reached a career best singles world ranking of 389 and won four ITF Futures titles. He was used as a practice partner on the United States Davis Cup team in 2006.[3] While competing on the ATP Challenger Tour he had a win over top 100 player Frank Dancevic. In doubles his best ranking was 508 and he played in the main draw of the 2005 US Open as a wildcard pairing with Denis Zivkovic, losing in the first round to José Acasuso and Sebastián Prieto.[4]
In 2017 he was handed a 10-year ban and $20,000 fine by the Tennis Integrity Unit for anti-corruption breaches. He was found guilty of colluding with third parties "to contrive the outcome of a match" at a 2015 Challenger tournament.[5] [6]
