Career
Baur had been a German national handball player since 1994 . He made his international debut on August 4, 1994 in Balingen against the Moroccan national team . He celebrated his greatest success at the 2007 World Cup when he became world champion in his own country with the German team. For this triumph he was awarded the silver bay leaf . In 228 international matches he scored 712 goals, 356 of which were seven meters for the German selection.
In 1993, Baur made his debut in the handball Bundesliga for SG Wallau / Massenheim , where he stayed until 1997. He then played one season (1997/98) for TV Niederwürzbach .

Between 2001 and 2007 Baur played for TBV Lemgo , with which he became German champion in 2003 . In March 2007 it was announced that Markus Baur would be moving to Pfadi Winterthur for the 2007/08 season.
