Dmitry Igorevich Tursunov (Russian: Дми́трий И́горевич Турсу́нов ( ) (born December 12, 1982 in Moscow, Russia) is a professional male tennis player from Russia. Tursunov, like his countrymen Marat Safin and Igor Andreev, left Russia at an early age. In Tursunov's case, he was 12 years old when he moved overseas to further his prospects of becoming a professional player. Unlike Safin and Andreev who went to Valencia, Spain, Tursunov went to live in the U.S. and has lived there ever since, like fellow Russian Maria Sharapova.
Tursunov is an aggressive baseliner with excellent groundstrokes from both sides and prefers to play on faster surfaces; he jokes about his lack of ability and success on clay courts.
Tursunov helped the Russian Davis Cup team win the 2006 Davis Cup, and reach the finals of the 2007 Davis Cup.
