Paul-Antoine Torre (born 18 May 1953) is a former professional tennis player from France.[1]
Torre made a surprise run to the third round of the 1981 French Open.[2] He started the tournament with a five set win over Australian Paul McNamee.[3] In the fifth set, McNamee served for the match, but Torre broke back and went on to win 7–5.[4] The Frenchman then beat Ángel Giménez to set up a third round meeting with top seed Björn Borg, which he lost in straight sets.[3] He also competed in the men's doubles, with Jérôme Potier.[3] They were unable to get past the pairing of José Luis Clerc and Ilie Năstase in the first round.[3] His efforts in 1981 also included quarter-final appearances at Nice, the Sofia Open and the Stuttgart Indoor event.[3]
In 1982, Torre was a semi-finalist in Buenos Aires, managing wins over Angel Gimenez, Freddie Sauer and Peter Feigl.[3] He won the first set of his semi-final against Alejandro Ganzábal, but lost in three.[3] He played again in the French Open that season but was unable to progress past the first round, losing to Peter Elter.[3] It would be his final year on the Grand Prix tennis circuit.[3]
