Jakub Mensik - man czecks sick!

[Rovesciarete]

The teenager is tall and athletic. He moves well and serves better. His strokes are more than solid and he tries to win points in many ways. Looks like a humble guy after beating top players. To me he has a high floor and plenty of room to grow. Arguably his only big weakness seems to me that he is not yet that good of a returner, sitting far away from the two most recent slam winners.

According to Elo is now the 23th best player in the world. Those ratings fluctuate a lot early but I would put him into the top 50 right now. Personally he looks like the best of the bunch among the guys under twenty.

Lot of aces and excellent first serve numbers, his second serve win percentage is also looking good. RPW not too bad at the Challenger level so he might mature into more solid numbers also on a Tour level. Winning over 50% of his points is very rare at this age.

[Neptune]

Emerging talent on the rise.

 

[Aabye5]

He's going deep in more and more events and sits just outside the top 50 in the Race. Will he end the year in the top 20?

 

[Aabye5]

Will get his first chance at the legend himself...Novak Djokovic
