Jérôme Inzerillo (born 15 February 1990, in Marseille) is a tennis player from France. He reached a career high ATP singles ranking of No. 354, which he achieved on 16 July 2012.

Career

In July 2004, Inzerillo won the U14 European Junior Championships after beating fellow countryman Nassim Slilam in the final, while in the doubles final he won alongside him, beating Spain's pair made of Jose Antonio Fuentes and Andoni Vivanco-Guzmán.[1] He thus became just the fifth player to win both the singles and doubles tournaments in the U14 events, only after Johan Sjögren (1977), Florian Loddenkemper (1984), Kamil Čapkovič (2000), and Novak Djokovic (2001).[1] This victory helped him finish the season as the No. 1 in the Tennis Europe ranking for U14s, ahead of the likes of future Top 50 player Ričardas Berankis.[2]

Inzerillo and Jonathan Eysseric were the 2007 US Open boys doubles champions as a sixth seed. In the semifinals, Inzerillo and Eysseric beat top-seeded Vladimir Ignatic and Roman Jebavý. In the final, they defeated Grigor Dimitrov and Vasek Pospisil.[3][4]

In January 2019, the AP reported that Inzerillo was one of four French tennis professionals arrested in a large tennis-fixing ring. Up to 100 players were suspected of working for a syndicate led by 28-year old Grigor Sargsyan, known as the Maestro. Sargsyan was arrested and held in a Belgian jail. The scheme was organized via encrypted messages lesser ranked players in smaller tournaments where the prize money of smaller amounts. Sargsyan employed people to place bets on matches at a small enough level to escape the notice of gambling watchdogs. Players would fix games, sets, or matches and receive 500 to 3000 Euros ($570–3400).[5]
