In his Roland Garros main draw debut in 2023 as a qualifier, Seyboth Wild upset World No. 2 Medvedev, securing his biggest career win and his first Grand Slam victory. He also had an incredible performance in the 2020 Rio de Janeiro tournament, saving three match points to defeat Davidovich Fokina in the first round. This match lasted for 3 hours and 50 minutes, making it the longest ATP Tour match since the 2009 Madrid SF. Seyboth Wild also secured his first ATP Tour win on home clay, defeating E. Ymer in the 2019 Sao Paulo first round as a wild card. In the same year, he reached his second ATP Tour quarterfinal at the Rio de Janeiro tournament.
