Biography
Rubinoff was born in Brooklyn, New York and at age 10 moved to Miami Beach, Florida. He became captain of the Miami Beach Senior High School tennis team, and in 1952, he won the National Scholastic singles and doubles titles. He received a full scholarship to the University of Miami.[1]
In 1952, he won the singles title at the Orange Bowl junior tennis tournament, and in 1953, he won the mixed doubles title with Sylvia Ger.[2][3] In 1962 he won the doubles title with Gardnar Mulloy at the Monte Carlo Championships.[4]
His best performances at the Grand Slam tournaments were achieved in the mixed doubles where he was a runner-up at the US Open on three occasions. In 1963, he reached the final with Judy Tegart and lost to Margaret Court and Ken Fletcher in three sets. In 1964, Tegart and Rubinoff were defeated in the final by Margaret Court and John Newcombe. His last appearance in the final came in 1966 when he teamed with Carol Aucamp and were beaten in straight sets in the final by Donna Floyd and Owen Davidson.[5][6]
