Encyclopedia
Julie Halard-Decugis is a former professional female tennis player.
Halard-Decugis lived in La Baule, France during the initial stages of her career and later moved to Pully
, Switzerland. She turned professional in June 1987 after winning the French Open junior singles title in 1986 and 1988 and reaching the Wimbledon
junior singles final in 1987. She retired from the WTA Tour tennis circuit at the end of the 2000 season. Her highest WTA Tour singles and doubles rankings was number seven and number one respectively. She had been coached by Arnaud Decugis since 1989.
Halard-Decugis won her first WTA Tour singles title in Puerto Rico. She enjoyed her best season in 1996, when she won her first WTA Tour Tier II singles title in Paris and finished the year with a career-high season-ending singles ranking of number 15 and as the number one singles player from France. This occurred despite the fact that her playing schedule in the second half of 1996 was curtailed because of a wrist injury sustained during the Fed Cup
semi-final match against Spain. She only played two tournaments in late 1997 because of injuries.
By winning the singles title in Rosmalen
in 1998, she became the 20th player to have won singles titles on all four surfaces in the Open Era. Halard also won the singles and doubles titles in Pattaya

to do so. In 1999, she won two WTA Tour singles titles and was runner-up on three other occasions. Between November 15, 1999 and January 9, 2000, Halard-Decugis, Nathalie Tauziat, Amélie Mauresmo
and Mary Pierce were all ranked inside the singles Top 10, the first time France had four players ranked among the singles Top 10.
2000 was to be the final and perhaps the finest year of Halard's professional playing career. She reached the Australian Open
singles quarter-final for the second time, captured the second WTA Tour Tier II title of her career in Eastbourne
and reached her career-high singles ranking of number 7 in February. Halard was also runner-up in Tokyo's Princess Cup in the month of October and won the doubles title with Ai Sugiyama
. The following week, she won both the singles and doubles titles at the Japan Open in Tokyo, saving three match points in the final to defeat the defending champion Amy Frazier

title as a professional. The pair also reached the final at Wimbledon, the semi-final at the French Open and the quarter-final at the Australian Open
that year. Halard-Decugis won nine other doubles titles in 2000, five of them with Sugiyama, and became the first Frenchwoman to attain the number one WTA Tour doubles ranking in the Open Era.
Halard-Decugis represented her country in the Federation Cup Fed Cup
from 1990 to 2000 and in the Olympics Games in 1992 and 2000.
