The 22-year old from Greece who turned pro in 2016, currently occupies the 5th spot in the ATP Singles rankings and has been a serious threat to the ones above him with his consistency in recent times.

The Greek star has made a great start to 2021, reaching the semi-finals of the Australian Open 2021 and Rotterdam Open 2021, along with appearances in the finals at Acapulco Open and Barcelona Open losing in some tight games.

He was however on the winning side in the finals of the Monte Carlo Masters 2021, followed it up with another final appearance at the Barcelona Open 2021 losing to now 12-time champion Rafael Nadal in a match that went for more than 3hours and became the longest best-of-three-set ATP Tour final since statistics started being tracked in 1991.
