Career

Born in Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), as the daughter of Don and Velia Black, the tennis-playing Cara is the younger sister of Wayne Black and Byron Black, both professional male tennis players. All three compete mostly in doubles; Wayne was the 2001 US Open and 2005 Australian Open champion and Byron was the 1994 French Open winner.

Cara has won five Grand Slam women's doubles titles in her career: Wimbledon 2004, 2005, and 2007; Australian Open 2007; and US Open 2008. She reached the 2000 US Open doubles final with Elena Likhovtseva. She has also won three Grand Slam mixed doubles titles, two of them partnering with her brother Wayne: the 2002 French Open and the 2004 Wimbledon Championships (they reached the final of the 2004 French Open and the semifinals of the 2003 French Open and 2003 US Open); and most recently the 2008 U.S. Open with Leander Paes of India.

In August 2005, Black announced that she would marry her longtime boyfriend, Australian mental and fitness trainer Brett Stephens.^[1] In November that year, Black was runner-up in the WTA Championships doubles title. Australian Samantha Stosur and American Lisa Raymond defeated Australian Rennae Stubbs and Black 6–7 (5–7), 7–5, 6–4.^[2]

2007 saw Black come back to partner Liezel Huber. They came together successfully, winning the 2007 Australian Open and triumphing at Wimbledon. The team ended the year as the number one team, winning the year-end championships over Katarina Srebotnik and Ai Sugiyama 5–7, 6–3, [10-8].^[3]

Black represented Zimbabwe at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.^[4] She lost to 2nd seeded Jelena Janković from Serbia in the first round on August 11, 2008. She teamed up with Leander Paes from India for the mixed doubles at the US Open, triumphing over Liezel Huber and Jamie Murray in the finals.

2009 did not see her best performances with five doubles titles leading to the year end championships in Doha, Qatar. She defended her World No. 1 title in doubles from sisters Serena Williams and Venus Williams by advancing to the final round of the year-end championships. Should she have lost in the semifinal and the sisters won the tournament, she would have lost her World No. 1 title.

Black started 2010 strongly by winning two tournaments leading up to the 2010 Australian Open, coming to the slam with an unbeaten record. Black made it to the finals in both the women's doubles and mixed doubles. She and Huber lost the women's doubles final to Venus and Serena Williams in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3. However she and Leander Paes won the mixed doubles in straight sets. The victory marked Black's first ever mixed doubles victory at the Australian Open. The victory also made her achieve a Career Grand Slam in mixed doubles.

Black and Huber broke up mutually from being exclusive doubles partners in April 2010. Since, Black partnered with Shahar Pe'er, Elena Vesnina, Zi Yan, Lisa Raymond, and Daniela Hantuchova. Even though she made the final of Warsaw and won a small tournament in Birmingham, she mostly received modest results after the break-up. Partnering with Vesnina and Hantuchova respectively, she lost in the third round of the French Open and Wimbledon. However, she continued her successful partnership with Paes as the pair won Mixed Doubles Title at Wimbledon.
