Lionel Brodie (28 May 1917 – 15 May 1995)[2] was an Australian amateur tennis player who competed mainly in the 1930s and 1940s.
He reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Championships in 1939, 1946 and 1947.[3][4] He played in the Davis Cup.[5] He also competed in doubles with good results at both state and national levels.[6][7] In November 1949 Brodie and doubles partner Bert Tonkin lost to 15-year-olds Lew Hoad and Ken Rosewall in an interstate match at Kooyong (6-3, 6-4).[8]
Brodie was ranked in the top 10 Australian players in 1939, 1940, 1945/6, 1946/7 and 1947/8.[9]
Along with Frank Sedgman and Paul McNamee, Brodie also won the Grace Park Lawn Tennis Club championship,[10] where the club recognises Brodie's contributions by awarding the Pennant Player of the Year the Lionel Brodie Trophy.[11]
