New Delhi

Indian tennis star Sumit Nagal is all set for his Wimbledon main draw debut. His participation marks the first time in five years that an Indian will compete in the Wimbledon singles draw.

He will also make his Roland Garros main draw debut on clay this month. The main draw matches at the second Grand Slam of the year begin on May 26. Sumit Nagal secured his place in the main draw of the men’s singles thanks to his career-high world ranking of 80. He is the first Indian male player to qualify for the French Open main draw since Prajnesh in 2019.

Nagal recently stunned world No. 38 Matteo Arnaldi at the Monte Carlo Masters, where he became the first Indian tennis player to qualify for the main draw of the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in 42 years.
