Pro tour

Muster played his first matches at the top-level in 1984, when he was still a junior player at the age of 16. In 1984, Muster played his first match for Austria in the Davis Cup, played at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, and also played in two tournaments on Austrian soil, which were the clay-court event in Kitzbühel, and the indoor carpet event in Vienna.

Muster turned professional in 1985, regularly playing in Challenger tournaments during the year, one of which he won in Belo Horizonte, as well as continuing to play in many top-level tournaments. Muster won his first top-level tournament at Hilversum, in the Netherlands, in 1986.

In 1988, Muster reached six top-level tournament finals, winning four of them, in Boston, Bordeaux, Prague and Bari. Muster finished the year ranked in the world's top 20 for the first time, at number 16.

Early in 1989, Muster became the first Austrian to reach the semi finals of the Australian Open, losing in four sets to eventual champion, Ivan Lendl. Shortly after that, Muster became the first Austrian to be ranked in the world's top 10. On the night of 31 March 1989, Muster defeated Yannick Noah in five sets, 5-7, 3-6, 6-3, 6-3, 6-2, in the semi finals of the Lipton International Players Championships in Key Biscayne, Florida, to set up a final against the world no. 1, Ivan Lendl. However, in the early hours of 1 April 1989, just hours after Muster's semi final victory, Muster was struck by a drunk driver, severing ligaments in his left knee and forcing him to default the final. Muster flew back to Vienna to undergo surgery. With the aid of a special chair designed to allow him to practice hitting balls while recovering from knee surgery, Muster returned to competitive tennis in September 1989.

Muster's comeback continued in 1990, when he won three top-level tournaments on clay (including the Italian Open, defeating Andrés Gómez in the semi finals and Andrei Chesnokov in the final) and one title on hardcourt. Muster reached the semi finals of the 1990 French Open, losing in straight sets to the eventual champion, Andrés Gómez. Muster also helped Austria reach the semi finals of the Davis Cup, where they were eliminated 3-2 by the United States, despite Muster winning both his singles rubbers against Michael Chang and Andre Agassi. For these achievements, Muster was named the ATP Tour's "Comeback Player of the Year."

In 1990, Muster won the Austrian Sportsman of the Year award.

Muster won two more top-level tournaments in 1991, and three more in 1992 (all on clay courts), with the biggest of these titles being the 1992 Monte Carlo title, where Muster defeated Aaron Krickstein, 6-3, 6-1, 6-3, in the final. In 1993, Muster won seven titles. Muster's win-loss record on clay in 1993 was 55-10, although he failed to win any of the biggest four clay-court events of the year.

At both the 1992 and 1993 French Opens, Muster was defeated by the reigning French Open, Italian Open and Australian Open champion, Jim Courier. At the 1994 French Open, Muster won his second round match against Andre Agassi in five sets, 6-3, 6-7, 7-5, 2-6, 7-5, but Muster was then defeated by the serve-and-volley play of Patrick Rafter in the next round, with Rafter's four set victory denying Muster a match against the reigning French Open champion, Sergi Bruguera.

Muster won three clay-court titles in 1994. In March 1994, Muster defeated Michael Stich of Germany in a first round Davis Cup tie in Graz, by the score of 6-4, 6-7, 4-6, 6-3, 12-10, after saving a match point when trailing at 7-8 in the fifth set. Despite Muster's win over Stich bringing Austria level at 2-2 in the tie, it was Germany who eventually won the decisive fifth rubber.

In 1995, Muster had the best year of his tennis career, winning 12 tournaments, with 11 of those tournaments won on clay-courts. Between February and June 1995, Muster won 40 consecutive matches on clay (the longest winning streak on the surface since Björn Borg had won 46 in 1977-79). At 1995 Monte Carlo, Muster defeated Andrea Gaudenzi, 6-3, 7-6, in the semi finals, despite Muster struggling hugely in the latter stages of the match due to having a shortage of glucose in his blood and a 40° fever, requiring a brief spell in the hospital after the match ended. The next day, Muster won the final against Boris Becker, after a tough match, by 4-6, 5-7, 6-1, 7-6, 6-0, with Muster surviving two championship points in the fourth set tiebreak, the first of which saw Becker double-faulting after going for a big second serve. Muster then clinched his second Italian Open title, defeating Sergi Bruguera, 3-6, 7-6, 6-2, 6-3, in the final. At the 1995 French Open, Muster won his first and only Grand Slam singles title, defeating Gérard Solvès, Cédric Pioline, Carlos Costa, Andriy Medvedev, Albert Costa and Yevgeny Kafelnikov before defeating the 1989 champion, Michael Chang, in the final, by the score of 7-5, 6-2, 6-4. Muster is the first, and to date, the only Austrian to win a Grand Slam singles title. Muster's win-loss record on clay in 1995 was 65-2. Although Muster's record on other surfaces was less impressive, a late season victory over Pete Sampras on a fast indoor carpet, during his run to the title of the Super 9 event in Essen, Germany, gave Muster an outside chance at finishing the year no. 1; however, Sampras finished the year at no. 1. Of the 12 tournaments that Muster won in 1995, Muster saved at least one match point held against him during six of them, with those six tournaments being held in Estoril, Barcelona, Monte Carlo, St. Pölten, Stuttgart Outdoor and Umag.

In 1995, Muster won the Austrian Sportsman of the Year award for the second time.

Muster continued to rack up clay-court victories in 1996. He won seven tournaments, six of them titles he successfully defended after winning them in 1995. These 1996 tournament victories included Muster winning his third Monte Carlo title, by defeating Albert Costa, 6-3, 5-7, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, in the final, and Muster winning his third Italian Open title, by defeating Richard Krajicek, 6-2, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3, in the final. Muster's win-loss record on clay in 1996 was 46-3. This made his 1995-96 record on the surface 111-5, which was the best two-year clay-court record since the open era began in 1968. Despite Muster's continued dominance on clay-courts in 1996, he was upset in the Round of 16 at the 1996 French Open, when eventual finalist, Michael Stich, defeated Muster, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1, 7-6. In July 1996, in the final of the 1996 Mercedes Cup in Stuttgart, Muster defeated the new French Open champion, Yevgeny Kafelnikov, 6-2, 6-2, 6-4.

In February 1996, Muster attained the world no. 1 ranking for the first time. He held the ranking initially for just one week, and then regained it for five weeks in March and April 1996. The validity of Muster's number one ranking was called into question by top Americans Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi, who argued that Muster had achieved the top spot based almost solely on his clay court results in 1995 and 1996, even though Muster had beaten Sampras on indoor carpet at the 1995 Essen Super 9 event, and Agassi had only won tournaments on hardcourt in 1995.

In 1997, Muster achieved the best results of his career on hardcourt. Muster reached the semi finals of the 1997 Australian Open, before losing to eventual champion, Pete Sampras, eight years after previously reaching the Australian Open semi finals. Muster then went on to win the tournament in Dubai, defeating Goran Ivanišević, 7-5, 7-6, in the final. Muster then won his biggest title on hardcourt, when he won the Lipton Championships in Miami, the same tournament where his career had nearly ended just eight years earlier, by defeating Sergi Bruguera, 7-6, 6-3, 6-1, in the final, after Bruguera had defeated Pete Sampras in the semi finals. Muster was also the runner-up at the Super 9 event in Cincinnati, where he lost to Pete Sampras. Muster had a 29-8 win-loss record on hardcourt in 1997, while slumping to 9-9 on clay in the same year. Muster's 1997 French Open campaign ended at the Round of 32 stage, when the unseeded Gustavo Kuerten, then ranked at 66 in the world, defeated Muster, 6-7, 6-1, 6-3, 3-6, 6-4. Against the odds, Kuerten went on to win the 1997 French Open title.

Muster reached his last top-level tournament final in Estoril (on clay) in 1998, losing to Alberto Berasategui. At the 1998 French Open, Muster reached the quarter finals, before losing to Félix Mantilla in four sets, with Mantilla getting revenge for his 1998 Italian Open loss to Muster. Muster's 1998 results faded after the spring, as he reached just one semi final (Mallorca), and one quarter final (Boston), in the remainder of the year. Muster opened 1999 with a semi final showing in Sydney, but he then struggled mightily over the next few months, winning just 2 of his 12 matches after Sydney. Following his first round loss to Nicolás Lapentti at the 1999 French Open, Muster discreetly left the tour at the age of 31. Muster remains the only world no. 1 singles player who never managed to win a men's singles match at Wimbledon throughout his whole career.

Muster only lost one Davis Cup singles match on clay during his career, when Goran Ivanišević defeated him in April 1997, 6-7, 7-5, 6-7, 6-2, 7-5, despite Muster having won 112 of his previous 117 matches on clay going into the match. Muster's overall Davis Cup win-loss record, counting both singles and doubles matches, was 45-18. Muster's win-loss record in Davis Cup singles matches was 36-8, while his win-loss record in Davis Cup singles matches on clay was 29-1. Muster has more match wins in Davis Cup than any other Austrian tennis player.

When he stopped playing tennis after the 1999 French Open, Muster moved to Noosa Heads, Queensland, Australia, where he had officially resided since 1996, and married television presenter Jo Beth Taylor in 2000. The couple lived on a 90-acre estate complete with helipad, and have a son, Christian, who was born in 2001. Muster and Taylor separated in 2002 and divorced in 2005. In 2003, Muster moved back to Austria, and has since been a coach and captain of the Austrian Davis Cup team, played tennis on the ATP Champions Tour, and established a brand named Toms, which has included apparel, wine, and bottled water. In April 2010, Muster married Caroline Ofner, and they have a daughter, Maxim, who was born in 2009.

On 16 June 2010, at the age of 42, Muster announced his comeback to professional tennis. In July 2010, Muster played the first match of his comeback in a Challenger tournament in Braunschweig, where he lost in the first round, as well as in the following three Challenger tournaments in Kitzbühel, Como, and Rijeka. Eventually, in his fifth Challenger tournament in Ljubljana, Muster won his first comeback match, against Borut Puc of Croatia, which brought Muster back into the ATP singles ranking list at world number 988. Muster finished 2010 ranked at world number 980. Subsequently, Austrian tennis experts discussed whether Muster's mental fortitude would be sufficient to bring him back into the top 100 in 2011, at the age of 43.

On 13 September 2011, Muster won a second match after his comeback, in the Todi Challenger against fifth seed from Argentina, Leonardo Mayer. His next opponent was countryman Martin Fischer, to whom Muster lost. On 19 September 2011, Muster reached his highest ranking after his return, at world number 847. Muster then lost his next match, at the Challenger tournament in Palermo, to Italian, Alessio di Mauro.

In October 2011, at the age of 44, Muster decided that he would play his last tennis match before retirement at the top-level Vienna tournament, where Muster lost to countryman, Dominic Thiem, in two straight sets. However, three weeks after playing in Vienna, Muster was back playing again, this time in a Challenger tournament in Salzburg. Despite having a good start against German, Dennis Bloemke, Muster lost in a three set fight, even after saving a match point in the final set. This was Muster's last match to date.

Equipment

When Muster was on the ATP Tour in the Twentieth Century, he wore Lotto clothing. From 1986 to 1993, Muster played with the Head Prestige Pro 600 racquet. In the summer of 1993, Muster switched for a few months to playing with the Head Prestige 600 racquet. In 1994 and 1995, Muster played with the Head Pro Tour 630 racquet. At the start of 1996, Muster switched to using a Kneissl racquet, which was closely modelled on his old Pro Tour 630. At the start of 1997, Muster switched his racquet again to the white Kneissl Tom's Reach Machine racquet, which had a longer handle and a 28-inch frame. In 1998, Muster used his Kneissl Tom's Reach Machine racquet on hardcourt, grass and carpet, but went back to his old 1996 Kneissl racquet on clay. When Muster played on the ATP Champions Tour, he used the Kneissl Tom's Reach Machine racquet.

When Muster came back to the ATP Tour in 2010, he used the Head Pro Tour 630 racquet, then switched to the Babolat AeroPro Drive GT racquet, and then went back to the Head Pro Tour 630 racquet again before playing his last matches in late 2011. Muster always wore Adidas clothing in his matches in 2010 and 2011.
