Biography
[edit | edit source]Boscatto, born in Naples, Italy, was primarily a doubles player. As a junior he represented Italy in the Sunshine Cup and his biggest individual success was reaching the final of the boys' doubles event at the 1988 US Open.[1] He and partner Stefano Pescosolido lost the final to the home pairing of Jonathan Stark and John Yancey.[2]
At the 1991 Mediterranean Games in Athens, Boscatto again partnered with Pescosolido and together they won a gold medal in the men's doubles, secured with a win over Spaniards Alberto Berasategui and Àlex Corretja.[3]
On tour his biggest success was in reaching the final of an ATP Tour tournament in Genoa in 1991, with Massimo Ardinghi.[4] He also won all of his three ATP Challenger doubles titles that year.
His only Grand Slam appearance was at the 1991 Wimbledon Championships. He competed in the men's doubles with Pescosolido. They were beaten in the first round by Jeff Brown and Bret Garnett.[5]
