Part 3/5:
Next Gen Competitors
Another name to watch is Learner Tien, an American who was the runner-up at the Next Gen ATP Finals and has now progressed to the second round of the Australian Open at the age of 19. His consistent performance makes him a player to keep an eye on as he continues to develop his skills on the professional tour.
Additionally, Alex Michelsen, a 20-year-old American ranked at number 42 in the world, has made headlines by defeating Greek star Stefanos Tsitsipas, another top-ten player, in his quest at this year’s Australian Open. Michelsen, advancing to the second round, is a testament to the emerging competitiveness within this age group.
