In 1981, he married the Venezuelan-born former Miss Universe Maritza Sayalero. The couple lives in Ensenada and has three children: Rebecca (born 1982), Raúl (born 1984), and Daniel Francisco (1989).
Career
Ramirez was ranked as high as World No. 4 (achieving this ranking on 7 November 1976) and he is one of the all-time leading doubles winners, having spent 61 weeks ranked World No. 1 in doubles, beginning 12 April 1976. He won 19 singles titles, including titles at the ATP Masters Series events in Rome (1975) and Monte Carlo (1978).
He won 60 doubles titles, including Wimbledon (1976), the French Open (1975 & '77), and at ATP Masters Series events in Cincinnati (1978), Canada (1976, ’77 & ’81), Monte Carlo (1979), Paris (1977), and Rome (1974, ’75, ’76 & ’77). He won the WCT World Doubles twice in 1975 and 1980. He won the men's singles in the Ojai Tennis Tournament in 1971.[2]
He played tournaments of the two world tennis circuits played at the time, the Grand Prix tennis circuit and the World Championship Tennis (WCT). These circuits were predecessors of the Association of Tennis Professionals Tour (ATP Tour). In 1975 he won the Grand Prix, the present day equivalent of the Race.
