Rising Star’s Stellar Season
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina has been unstoppable on the ATP Tour in 2025. After letting slip match points in Delray Beach, the 25-year-old Spanish sensation rebounded with a runner-up finish in Acapulco and a semi-final run in Monte-Carlo.
Finding His Feet in Monaco
A move to Monaco last June may have initially seemed to affect Davidovich Fokina’s game, but the Spaniard has found his feet and is now reaping the rewards. “The last six months were not easy, but it gave me a lot of energy and a lot of vision off the court,” he said.
Mentored by a Maestro
Under the tutelage of former World No. 10 and 10-time tour-level titlist Felix Mantilla, Davidovich Fokina is blossoming. “His experience as an ex-Top 10 is another level. Off the court, he can advise me how to manage things. He’s a very calm guy and that’s what I needed,” he said.
Climbing the Rankings
Davidovich Fokina’s impressive performances have seen him climb 42 spots to No. 26 in the PIF ATP Rankings this season. He’s currently 13th in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin, firmly in the mix for a debut at the Nitto ATP Finals.
Versatility fondateur of Success
Athleticism and versatility have been key to Davidovich Fokina’s rise. He’s proven to be a threat on all surfaces, taking down top-10 players like Taylor Fritz, Jack Draper, and Andrey Rublev.
“I think I’m a guy that can adapt on every surface. I just need one or two days to adapt, but in the end I’m playing good on all surfaces. I’m very grateful how my game can adapt so quickly,” he said.
Road to Rome
Davidovich Fokina will take on lucky loser Jesper de Jong in the first round of the Internazionali BNL d’Italia. A potential third-round clash with home favorite and World No. 1 Jannik Sinner awaits.
Q&A: Alejandro Davidovich Fokina
Davidovich Fokina: “It’s always nice to be back in Rome. It feels like home… All the best friends and family of my fiancée are from here. It’s always a pleasure to come back here to the Foro [Italico] and play with the Italian crowd.”
Q: What’s the secret to your versatility?
Davidovich Fokina: “It’s a process. I didn’t play good in the tie-break and I didn’t know how to manage that tie-break, but it’s a process. After the match, we understood a lot of things and that tie-break was helpful, because for sure it won’t happen again.”
Looking Ahead
With his fiancée by his side, Davidovich Fokina is proving that tennis is not just about talent, but also about foundational growth and learning from experiences. As he continues to climb the rankings and cement his place among the sport’s elite, one thing is certain: Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is a name to watch in tennis.
