Wednesday marks the official launch of the Next Gen Masters. The world's top eight tennis players under the age of 21 gather in Saudi Arabia.
In a tournament with an original format (match in 3 sets of 4 games each) and atypical rules (no warm-up, no let, no corridor, decisive point at 40-40...), these young wolves intend to make their mark.
Following Luca Van Assche's win over Juncheng Shang, Alex Michelsen's victory over Nishesh Basavareddy and Learner Tien's victory over Jakub Mensik, Joao Fonseca and Arthur Fils now cross swords.
In a close duel (currently one set all), Arthur Fils won one of the first points of the match with an unorthodox volley (see video below).
A wonderful point.
