A player younger than the others won the Miami Open, with a top coach claiming he showcases a level of play superior to his current rank. Patrick Mouratoglou, Naomi Osaka’s coach, shared insights on the Czech teenager, stating that Mensik hasn’t broken into the top ten yet but is advancing rapidly in the rankings.
He emphasized Mensik’s achievement of winning a Masters 1000 tournament in Miami, where he defeated Novak Djokovic in the final, indicating that Mensik’s actual level surpasses his ranking.
Mensik’s Promising Start to 2025
Despite ending his impressive nine-match Masters 1000 winning streak in Madrid, the 19-year-old has had an outstanding season thus far, notably beating Djokovic to claim the Miami title. On the ATP rankings, he will rise to 21st place, reaching a personal best.
Earning the seventh most points in the ATP this year, Mensik is positioned favorably for a top-ten breakthrough. He is currently in the qualification spots for the ATP Finals in Turin and will soon compete at the Italian Open starting May 5.
