German tennis star Jan-Lennard Struff has won the ATP Comeback Player of the Year award. The 33-year-old made a stunning jump from 167 to 21 in the ATP Ranking. Therefore, he won the ATP Comeback Player of the Year accolade.
Struff had most of his success on the hard court where he ended up winning 16 out of 25 matches. Overall, the Warstein-born ended up winning 24 matches in 45 outings.
However, despite those numbers, Struff did not have a great outing while playing at the Grand Slams. He played in the main round of two major events and on both occasions, he was knocked out after losing in the first round.
Interestingly, Struff just never had a great time while playing at the Grand Slams. His best outing in any major competition came in the French Open where on two occasions, his journey lasted till the fourth round. Therefore, it is no surprise that the current world number 25 has a win percentage of just 37 % at the Grand Slams.
Struff has only won four singles ATP titles in his career and just one since 2017. Therefore, his fans will be hoping that after being recognized for his impressive performances in the recent past, the 33-year-old will finally showcase his talent at the highest level next year.
