He was awarded as best Danish "Tennis Player of the Year" seven times by the Danish Tennis Federation (first time in 1991, last time in 2005). Two times the award went to the Danish Davis Cup team, of which Kenneth Carlsen until 2003 was a central part (having a 29–13 record in singles).

He turned full-time professional in 1992, and his breakthrough as senior in a major tourn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
