His best singles result at a Grand Slam tournament was reaching the third round at Wimbledon in 1964 and 1966. He also reached the third round at the Australian Championships in 1963, but this was due to two walkovers in the first rounds.
Wooldridge won the Surrey Championships on grass in 1966 defeating Peter Curtis in the final and the same tournament again in 1968 defeating Ken Fletcher in the final.
After his active playing career, he was employed by the LTA as a development coach for female players from 1995 until his retirement in 2005.[1]
He married Scottish tennis player Winnie Shaw in 1972.[2]
