Shozo Shiraishi (27 January 1958 – 19 January 2010) was a Japanese professional tennis player.
Shiraishi, who was born in Osaka, played in professional tournaments through the 1980s, reaching a career best ranking of 326 in the world. His best performance at Grand Prix level came at Maui in 1983, where he made it into the second round, with a win over former Wimbledon semi-finalist Pat DuPré. He featured himself at Wimbledon in the 1984 qualifying draw, from which he was eliminated by Boris Becker.[1]
Between 1984 and 1987, Shiraishi represented the Japan Davis Cup team and had a 6/7 record, all in singles rubbers. In 1985 he played in two World Group ties and lost all of his matches, but took a set off both Aaron Krickstein of the United States and Spain's Sergio Casal.[2] [3]
In 1986 he defeated Soichi Nakamura to win the singles title at the All Japan Tennis Championships.[4]
