Fonseca

Joao Fonseca qualified for the Australian Open on Thursday against Thiago Agustin Tirante, with an impressive showing.

The Brazilian conceded just twelve games in three matches.

The X Game, Set and Maths account reported that he was the second player under the age of twenty to concede twelve games or less in Grand Slam qualifying.

The other player is none other than Carlos Alcaraz, who qualified for the 2021 French Open by conceding just 11 games, at the age of 18.

The unlucky player will be the one to inherit Fonseca in the first round.
