Best Answer

Australian Samuel Groth hit an ace recorded at 163.4 mph (263 kph) on 10th May 2012 during an ATP Challenger event against Belarusian Uladzimir Ignatik in Busan, South Korea.

In the same match two other serves were recorded at 157.5 mph (253.5 kph) and 158.9 mph (255.7 kph).

All 3 of these serves beat the previous record of 156 mph (251 km/h), made by Croatian Ivo Karlic in the 2011 Davis Cup.

Unfortunately these serves did not help him to win the match - he still lost 4-6 3-6.
