Career edit

As a junior, Boyé was a left-handed prodigious player from Nancy who won several youth tournaments. In 1990, Boyé became one of the few players to win both the Petits As and the European Junior Championships in the same year.[1][2] Two years later, in 1992, Boyé won a World Youth Cup (Junior Davis Cup) title for France. He was a junior doubles finalist at the 1994 French Open, partnering Nicolas Escudé.[3]

Boyé had a best singles ranking of 299 on the professional tour and made an ATP Tour doubles main draw appearance at the 1992 Bordeaux Open. At ATP Challenger level, he was a doubles finalist in Mumbai in 2000 and as a singles qualifier in Hull in 2001 made the semi-finals. He won one singles and five doubles titles on the ITF Futures circuit.[4]
