He was a former Wimbledon junior champion and became the number one American player in June 2021. Opelka achieved significant success in his career, including winning four ATP 250 titles on American soil and winning the longest tiebreak in ATP Tour history. He also saved match points against Raonic and defeated Nishioka on the same day to win his second title. Notably, Opelka saved multiple match points against Isner in the semifinals of the New York tournament and hit a remarkable 43 aces against both Isner and Schnur to claim his first title. He also had a big upset win against Tsitsipas in Toronto, reaching his first ATP Masters 1000 final. Opelka has recently returned to the ATP Tour after a two-year injury break, reaching the semifinals in Newport
