Gordon James Reid[1] OBE (born 2 October 1991) is a British professional wheelchair tennis player. He was ranked world No. 1 in singles and world No. 1 in doubles.[2] He is a Paralympic gold, silver, and bronze medalist, two-time Grand Slam singles champion, and record holding twenty-five time Grand Slam doubles champion.[3]
He has competed for Great Britain at the Summer Paralympics when tennis made its first appearance at Beijing 2008. He reached the quarterfinals in the singles in London 2012 as well as the quarterfinals in doubles.[4] He won Paralympic gold in the men's singles event at Rio 2016 and silver in the doubles event with partner Alfie Hewett, whom he beat in the singles final. At Tokyo 2020, Reid won bronze in the singles and silver in the doubles with Hewett. The pair later went on to complete a calendar year Grand Slam, winning all four majors in 2021. He currently holds the record for most doubles slam titles won by a male wheelchair player, with 25.
Reid was born able-bodied, claiming that he enjoyed a wide variety of sports as a kid including football and tennis. However, at the age of 12, he contracted a rare neurological condition called transverse myelitis which left him paralyzed from the waist down.[5]
