Timeline
Jeffrey Gail Tarango (born November 20, 1968) is a retired American tennis player.
Tarango turned professional in 1989 after completing his junior year at Stanford University, where he won two NCAA team titles.
During his career, he won two top-level singles titles and 14 doubles titles.
Tarango reached two Super 9 quarterfinals, Rome in 1995 and Miami in 1998.
His career-high world rankings are No. 42 in singles and No. 10 in doubles.
Tarango was banned by the ITF from the 1996 Wimbledon tournament.
Tarango was also the beneficiary of a default in the men's doubles tournament earlier at the same championship.
He and partner Henrik Holm were at two sets to one down against the team of Jeremy Bates and Tim Henman when Henman angrily smashed a ball that inadvertently hit ball girl Caroline Hall, resulting in their disqualification.
Coincidentally, Hall was also a ball girl in Tarango's match against Mronz.
He was a top-ten doubles player and a runner-up at the 1999 French Open men's doubles tournament.
He is now the Director of Tennis at the Jack Kramer Club, which is just south of Los Angeles.
He was runner-up in the men's doubles at the 1999 French Open, partnering with Goran Ivanišević.
In the third round trailing 6–7, 1–3 to Alexander Mronz, Tarango became infuriated with French umpire Bruno Rebeuh, who had ruled against Tarango several times.
During the match, when preparing to serve, the crowd heckled Tarango and he responded "Oh, shut up!"
Rebeuh immediately issued a code violation to Tarango on the grounds of audible obscenity.
Tarango protested this violation, called for the tournament referee, and asked for Rebeuh to be removed.
Tarango was instructed to continue to play.
He then accused Rebeuh of being "one of the most corrupt officials in the game" – to this Rebeuh gave Tarango another code violation, this time for verbal abuse.
Tarango took umbrage, packed his rackets and stormed off the court.
To add to the controversy, Tarango's wife at the time then slapped Rebeuh twice in the face.
Tarango retired from the main tour in 2003 and now devotes his time to coaching as well as broadcasting for BBC, ESPN, Tennis Channel, Fox Sports and DirecTV.
He also hosts a charity event in La Jolla for the Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego.
Tarango is currently the vice chair for the AAC on the USOC (Governance Committee).

He still makes occasional appearances at professional events, including the 2008 USA F21 Futures event in Milwaukee.
He also provides commentary for BBC Radio and in particular for its extended coverage on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra.
During his broadcasting career, Tarango has earned a reputation for having a good eye for potential Hawk-Eye overrules.
In his 2009 autobiography Open, Andre Agassi claims that Tarango cheated in a juniors tournament to hand the eight-year-old Agassi his first- competitive loss.
To which, Tarango says they had a chair umpire and Agassi is lying throughout the book "just to make money".
After professional tennis, Tarango worked for the AON Corporation with Theodore Forstmann and Andy Roddick.
In 2018, he was the tournament director of a $30,000 men's California championships.
At that championships, ATP world-ranked No. 11, Sam Querrey, beat Davis Cup captain Mardy Fish to win this event.
