Linda Gates (born 1963) is an American former professional tennis player.

Biography

A native of Burlingame, California, Gates played college tennis for Stanford University in the early 1980s. She made history at the 1985 NCAA Division I Women's Tennis Championships when she became the first woman to win consecutive doubles championships, as well as the first woman to win the singles and doubles championship in the same year.[1] She won the Broderick Award (now the Honda Sports Award) as the nation's top collegiate tennis player in 1985.[2][3][4]

Gates had her best performance in a grand slam tournament at the 1985 Australian Open, where she was a quarter-finalist in the women's doubles, partnering Alycia Moulton. Their run included a win over the eighth seeded Maleeva sisters (Katerina and Manuela).

Following her graduation from Stanford in 1985 she competed briefly on the professional tour.[5] At the 1985 US Open, she won through to the third round, playing as a wildcard. She was runner-up to Gabriela Sabatini at the 1985 Japan Open, which was the Argentine's first WTA Tour title.[6]
