Biography

Endelman, who grew up on New York's Long Island, played collegiate tennis at Columbia University, before turning professional in 1987.[1]

Most of his matches on the professional tour were as a doubles player, reaching a career best doubles ranking of 183. His best performances on the Grand Prix circuit were quarter-finals appearances at Boston and Schenectady in 1988, partnering John Sobel on both occasions. He competed in the main draw of the men's doubles at the 1988 US Open, with Peter Palandjian.[2]

Retiring after the 1989 season, Endelman served as head coach of the women's tennis team at Columbia until 1992. He then studied at Boston College and graduated with a J.D, after which he worked in New York City for several years as a lawyer and in finance. From 2010 until 2019 he was the associate head coach of the Columbia men's tennis team.[3] He assumed the mantle of head coach in 2019 after head coach Bid Goswami retired.
