Biography
Bruthans was born in the Czechoslovakian town of Kyjov, which is now part of the Czech Republic.

At the 2005 Summer Universiade in Izmir, he won bronze medals for Slovakia in both the men's doubles and mixed doubles events.

His professional career was spent on the Futures and Challenger circuits. As a singles player he reached 238 in the world, with Futures titles in India, Ukraine and Nigeria, as well as a runners-up trophy at the 2005 Togliatti Challenger. He won two Challenger titles in doubles.

Bruthans made several attempts to qualify for the main draw of a Grand Slam tournament, most notably at the 2005 Australian Open, where he reached the final round of qualifying.

In 2006 he represented Slovakia in a Davis Cup tie against Chile in Rancagua. The tie, a World Group opener, was secured by Chile after the doubles match, which gave Bruthans an opportunity as the reverse singles were dead rubbers. He lost his match in straight sets to Paul Capdeville.
