Learner Tien and Luca Van Assche have qualified for the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF, to be held from 18-22 December.
American Tien will make his debut at the 20-and-under event, having won three ATP Challenger Tour titles in 2024. The 18-year-old also enjoyed a run to the quarter-finals at the ATP 250 event in Winston-Salem and will compete in Jeddah against countryman Alex Michelsen, who qualified on Monday.
Van Assche is set to return to Jeddah after advancing to the semi-finals at the event last year. The 20-year-old Frenchman reached the third round at the Australian Open in January and earned eight tour-level wins in 2024.
Arthur Fils, Michelsen, Jakub Mensik and Shang Juncheng qualified on Monday and there are now two qualification spots left. Buy tickets here to watch the eight upcoming stars live in Jeddah.
