Style and personality
Ask any tennis player or fan, and they’ll tell you de Minaur is one of the fastest players to ever set foot on a tennis court. It’s no surprises then that his style is based around this strength, with The Demon relying on his incredible court coverage to execute the kind of defence that forces errors from opponents. As with any Aussie, he’s a pretty likable guy too.
Career
Alex de Minaur has surged from a quiet, under-rated top-20 player, to a genuine threat knocking on the door of the world’s top five. The Aussie is best known for his sheer grit and determination, hunting down balls and outlasting opponents with raw cardio. He’s beefed up his serve and groundstrokes over the last two years, leading to five Grand Slam quarter-finals in his past seven appearances. Pair these with 10 titles and career-high of No 6 in the world, and you know the 26-year-old is never an easy-beat.
