Who is Nicklas Kroon?

Niclas Kroon is a former tennis player from Sweden. The right-hander turned pro in 1986 and reached his career-high singles ranking on the ATP Tour of World No. 49 in December 1989. His best performance at a Grand Slam came at the 1990 French Open, where he reached the fourth round.
