Style and personnality:
Brooksby’s game defies convention. He’s not the biggest hitter on tour, but few players read the game better. His signature is tactical creativity, using changes of pace, direction, and rhythm to frustrate opponents. With exceptional anticipation and a low, compact two-handed backhand, he turns defense into attack like few others. On court, Brooksby is intense, cerebral, and unpredictable, a true tennis thinker. Off court, he’s known for his quiet, analytical nature, preferring to let his racquet do the talking.
Career
Jenson Brooksby burst onto the ATP scene in 2021, instantly standing out for his unconventional game and remarkable court intelligence. After reaching the fourth round of the US Open that same year, he quickly climbed into the world’s Top 35. His breakthrough continued in 2022, with impressive wins over established names and two ATP finals in Atlanta and Dallas.
In 2025, after nearly a year away from the tour, Brooksby made an inspiring return by winning his first ATP title in Houston, defeating Frances Tiafoe in the final. It was a powerful statement: the Californian’s talent and determination are very much alive, and his comeback is only just beginning.
