De Minaur creates his perfect player

Le 21/12/2024 à 15h24 par Elio Valotto

Alex De Minaur is one of the outstanding players of the 2024 season. Long considered to have an unsurpassable glass ceiling, the 25-year-old Australian has completely changed category this year.

Establishing himself as one of the best players on the circuit, he moved into the world's Top 10 and even booked his ticket for the Masters at the end of the year.

Bluffing, he's hoping to go even further and has announced his intention to reach a milestone in the Grand Slam, particularly on home soil at the Australian Open.

As he prepares for the 2025 season, our colleagues at Opta Ace asked De Minaur to put together his perfect tennis player. So, for the world number 9, the perfect player would be someone with the serve of Nick Kyrgios, the forehand of Juan Martin Del Potro, the backhand of David Nalbandian, the power of Jannik Sinner and the game intelligence of Roger Federer.
