The reason I have picked these players as ones to watch out for this 2021 is that they are all players that I aspire to be like and they make me want to become a professional even more.

They all have parts of their game that I watch more than others such as Stefanos Tsitsipas’ one-handed backhand or Jannik Sinner’s take back on his forehand. I especially like the intensity that Coco Gauff shows on court and I try to take this on court when I play. I am hoping to see these players start to take down the likes of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic even more and same for Coco Gauff in the women’s game. I can’t wait to watch all the big tournaments this year. It is going to be very exciting to watch.

Happy New Year!
Sam
