==Biography==
'''Patricia Hy-Boulais''' (born August 22, 1965 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia) is a Canadian former professional tennis player. Early in her career she represented Hong Kong (since the beginning until the end of the 1987 season). She became a citizen of Canada in 1991, but represented Canada starting at the beginning of the 1988 season. She reached a career-high WTA singles ranking of No. 28 on March 8, 1993 and a career-high WTA doubles ranking of No. 36 on March 30, 1987. Her best performance at a Grand Slam came when she got to the quarterfinals of the 1992 US Open, defeating Eva Švíglerová, Judith Wiesner, Jennifer Capriati and Helena Suková before losing to eventual champion Monica Seles. After Hy-Boulais did it in 1992, Canada did not have another woman to survive into the second week at the French Open until Aleksandra Wozniak did it in 2009. She won the junior Wimbledon doubles title in 1993. She retired in 1998.
 
In 1983, Hy-Boulais won the junior Wimbledon doubles title. Early in her career, she represented Hong Kong (since the beginning until the end of the 1987 season). She became a citizen of Canada in 1991, but represented Canada starting at the beginning of the 1988 season. Her best performance at a Grand Slam came when she got to the quarterfinals of the 1992 US Open, defeating Eva Švíglerová, Judith Wiesner, Jennifer Capriati and Helena Suková before losing to eventual champion Monica Seles. After Hy-Boulais did it in 1992, Canada did not have another woman to survive into the second week at the French Open until [[Aleksandra Wozniak]] did it in 2009. She was named Tennis Canada female player of the year six times (1991, 1992, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1997) and received the Fed Cup Commitment Award in 2016. She retired in 1998.
 
She married tennis coach Yves Boulais, with whom she has two children Isabelle (born in 2000) and Justin (born in 2001) who are both playing tennis. Her husband is now Tennis Director at the Ontario Racquet Club in Mississauga, Ontario, where the couple currently reside. Hy-Boulais was inducted into the Canadian Tennis Hall of Fame in 2004.
