Jan-Lennard Struff

Jan-Lennard Struff is the kind of player I have a real soft spot for: a German pro who spent years grinding away as a steady tour presence before finally peaking at world No. 21 in singles in June 2023, well into his thirties. At 193 cm with a serve-forward game, he was always dangerous on quicker surfaces, and his ranking in both singles and doubles tells me he was a genuine all-court worker rather than a one-dimensional specialist. What I admire most is the persistence. Reaching a career high that late takes belief most players lose long before then.
