Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
In the first meeting between Learner Tien from the USA and Wild Card Justin Engel from Germany, both players have unique backgrounds and achievements. Learner Tien, aged 19 and ranked World No. 67, had a breakthrough in August 2024 when he entered the Top 200. He continued his rise and reached the Top 100 in January 2025. Tien achieved his career-high ranking of No. 66 in March 2025 after defeating No. 2 Zverev at Acapulco, marking his biggest career win and quarter-final appearance. He made history by upsetting No. 5 Medvedev at the Australian Open, becoming the youngest player to defeat a Top-5 player in the event’s history.
Tien also qualified for the 2024 Next Gen ATP Finals, where he defeated top seeds to reach the final, becoming the first left-handed finalist in the event’s history. His impressive 28-match winning streak in 2024 included capturing ITF Tour titles and his first Challenger title in Bloomfield Hills. In his junior career, Tien reached No. 4 and won the 2023 Australian Open boys’ doubles title. Tien aims to become the second-youngest match winner in Mallorca history by defeating Justin Engel, who is 17 and making his debut at the tournament. This match between the two teenagers is the youngest on the ATP Tour since a similar encounter in Rio de Janeiro last year.
On the other hand, Justin Engel, ranked World No. 219, had a remarkable journey from being unranked in 2024 to breaking into the Top 500 and eventually reaching his career-high ranking in June 2025 after his first ATP Tour quarter-final appearance in Stuttgart. Engel made history as the second-youngest man to win ATP Tour matches on different surfaces and as the youngest men’s tour-level grass quarter-finalist since Becker at Wimbledon in 1985. He also became the youngest German man since Boris Becker to win a tour-level match.
Engel, who peaked at No. 56 in juniors, has shown promise in his young career, with a 3-1 record in opening rounds on the ATP Tour. He aims to become the youngest match winner in Mallorca history and has already made a mark by winning matches on all three surfaces at a young age. Their upcoming match promises to be an exciting battle between two rising stars in the tennis world.
