November 29, 2024
Joao Fonseca has qualified for the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF and the Jeddah field is now set.
The Brazilian becomes the eighth player to qualify for the 20-and-under event, due to be held from 18-22 December. Arthur Fils, Alex Michelsen, Jakub Mensik, Shang Juncheng, Learner Tien, Luca Van Assche and Nishesh Basavareddy will also compete at the event, having qualified earlier this week.
Fonseca started the year at No. 727 in the PIF ATP Rankings but has soared to a career-high No. 145 after an impressive season.
The Brazilian lit up Rio de Janeiro in February when he advanced to the quarter-finals at the ATP 500 event on home soil, beating Arthur Fils and Cristian Garin. The 18-year-old also reached the last eight in Bucharest and won his maiden ATP Challenger Tour title in Lexington.
