Flaunting fast hands and incredible mobility on the court, the 20-year-old, who is already being talked up as a future superstar in the game, upended many top rivals to end up on the champion’s podium in Antwerp, Sofia, Washington and Melbourne.

The progress he made on the circuit last year saw the current World No. 10 earn his maiden passage to the big-ticket ATP Finals in Turin. Playing before an adoring home crowd, the lanky Italian got his campaign off to a rousing start downing Hubert Hurkacz of Poland.

Taking the momentum from his opening win at the event, the Italian ably led his homeland’s title charge at the event by downing rising Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech in his next.
