Life

Paul Kilderry had little success in the course of his career, which is why he specialized in the men's doubles. He celebrated his first double title in 1996 in Rosmalen with Pavel Vízner .

He won his last title in 2000 with Sandon Stolle in Los Angeles . They benefited from the fact that their final opponents Jan-Michael Gambill and Scott Humphries gave up without a fight .
