Al Torres

For a span of 35 year, Al Torres was at or near the top of the one-wall singles field at the Open level. The powerful lefty with great hooking serves won 11 open titles, including two final singles wins over Joe Durso. Starting out at East New York High, Torres quickly improved to be one of the most feared on the court and respected off the court. Al’s legendary conditioning makes him a physical marvel into his 60s.
