Atsushi Miyagi (宮城淳 Miyagi Atsushi?) (October 19, 1931) is a Japanese former tennis player.
Career
In 1955 Miyagi won the U.S. National Championships men's doubles title at the Longwood Cricket Club in Boston with compatriot Kosei Kamo after a five-set victory over Americans Gerald Moss and Bill Quillian.[1] Hurricane Diane roared through New England in August 1955, flooding the tennis courts and delaying the tournament for a week. When the tournament resumed many of the leading players such as Ken Rosewall, Tony Trabert, Lew Hoad and Vic Seixas had already left which devalued the men's doubles draw.[2]
Miyagi won the Japanese tennis championships in 1954, 1955, 1957 and 1960.
Between 1952 and 1963 he played in 16 ties for the Japanese Davis Cup team.[3]
At the 1962 Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia he won a gold medal in the men's doubles competition with Michio Fujii and a silver medal in the men's singles competition.
