"Fonseca will be at the level of Sinner and Alcaraz in two years," predicts Rick Macci

Rick Macci, former coach of Maria Sharapova, Andy Roddick, Serena and Venus Williams among others, has been highly complimentary of Joao Fonseca.

The Brazilian delivered an impressive victory against Hubert Hurkacz in his first match at Roland-Garros.

Macci stated about Fonseca: "Fonseca is the best young talent I’ve seen since Carlos, the one who has the essential qualities to win Grand Slams.

He will gain incredible experience on how to lose and how to win, and in two years, he will be at the level of Sinner and Alcaraz."

Next up at Roland-Garros this Thursday for the Brazilian is a match against Pierre-Hugues Herbert.
