David Marrero Santana (born April 8, 1980 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain) is a professional tennis player from Spain.
He is the older brother of retired WTA player Marta Marrero.
Professional career
2000 to 2007
Marrero earned his first world ranking late in 2000 as a 20 year old, but he spent only a few weeks inside the top-500 until early 2005. By late 2005, he had made it into the top-300, but faded over the next year to close out 2006 outside the top-400. In the middle of 2007, he again inched into the top-300, but faded again to close out 2007 at #362.
2008
As a qualifier, he reached the final in January of a Challenger in Chile, losing to #132 Rubén Ramírez Hidalgo after upsetting #272 Sebastián Decoud, #187 Adrián García, and #111 Nicolás Lapentti, to get his ranking back into the top-300 at #289. He followed that up the next week by beating Ramirez-Hidalgo again to qualify into an ATP stop in Chile, where he beat Garcia again before losing to #104 Fabio Fognini in the 2nd round, getting his ranking to #275. He failed to qualify the next two weeks at ATP stops, although he did record an upset win over #114 Máximo González in February.
