STRUGGLES ON THE SENIOR TOUR
He won the junior boys' singles title at Wimbledon in 2011 but admits he has struggled to make an impression in men's singles on the senior tour. "For whatever reason, I've found it hard to take that next step from the juniors. There are a lot of good players out there trying to grab a top-100 spot, which is where you need to be to make a living in tennis. I'm trying to find my own path in the tennis world."

Milestones
