Alex de Minaur has surged into the US Open final 16 and is now on the verge of being Australia’s first top 10-ranked male player in 20 years
Sit close enough to a tennis court when Alex de Minaur is at full velocity and the sound of shrieking, audible and ever-present during a point, tells the story of the busiest feet in tennis.
The volume contrasts to the quiet yet pointed manner with which the 24-year-old, who will seek to reach his second US Open quarterfinal on Monday, leads by example off the court. As his Davis Cup teammate Thanasi Kokkinakis observed this week, de Minaur prefers to be the guy engaging in small talk with friends in a corner rather than being the life of the party.
There is plenty of noise coming from his compatriots about the excellence of his tennis and how the example he is setting is dragging other top Australians along for the ride.
