Tour career
Werner made his first Grand Prix quarter-final in 1986, at Metz.[3] He was a quarter-finalist again the following year, at the Guarujá Open.[3] Also in 1987, he reached the doubles semi-finals of the Heineken Open, with David Lewis as his partner.[3]
At the 1988 Australian Open, Werner made it through qualifying and met world number 62 Michiel Schapers in the opening round of the main draw.[3] He won the first two sets and twice served for the match in the third, but the match would go into a fifth set, which he lost 10–12.[4] In the doubles, Werner and David Lewis reached the round of 16, where they were defeated by Andrew Castle and Roberto Saad.[3] The match was another close one, decided 16–14 in the final set.[3]

Werner is the current coach of the Switzerland Davis Cup team and was the coach of Petr Korda when the Czech player won the 1998 Australian Open.[5]
