message: The intro section mentions that Krickstein "competed on the ATP Tour from 1983 to 1996, winning five grand slam singles events". The latter is demonstrably false, as witnessed by the infobox itself (two semis, but no wins), and as can be seen in one of the quoted sources (http://www.itftennis.com/mens/players/player.asp?player=10000733). 
The source for the claim is apparently "The Big Book of Jewish Sports Heros; An Illustrated Compendium of Sports History and The 150 Greatest Jewish Sports Stars.", which indeed mentions this track record; however, this is incorrect. The claimed wins were:
* Wimbledon '85; actual winner: Boris Becker
* Roland Garros '88 and '95; actual winners Mats Wilander and Thomas Muster
* US Open '94; actual winner: Andre Agassi
* Australian Open '95; actual winner also Andre Agassi.
I've removed the offending passage.
Also, the article mentions that "Krickstein set and still holds ATP records for being the youngest player ever to win a singles title on the ATP Tour (at age 16, 2 months after his 16th birthday, in Tel Aviv), and for being the youngest player to ever break the top 10 (at age 17)." At least the former claim is incorrect: Rafael Nadal beat Ramon Delgado in April 2002, at 15 years and 10 months. I've removed the 'still holds' section as well.
