A thread that follows the next generation

I'll rank the nextgen players (under 25y.o. by end of 2019) based on their GS performance, while highlighting their significant non-GS achievements. Will update the list after every GS.
It is interesting to note that AO (3 semifinalists+2 quarterfinalists) has by far been the best GS for the youngsters, while the other three GS have had only 1 quarterfinalist each. The NextGen have done overall done better on hard court than on grass and clay.

Lucas Pouille is born in early 1994 not 1996, he is not really a Next Gen player.
