Joao Fonseca Backed as ‘Next Novak Djokovic’ to Challenge Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner

“You’re gonna be the next Nole to beat Carlos and Jannik,” Davidovich Fokina told Fonseca after the Swiss Indoors final. The teen’s surge includes the 2024 Next Gen crown, a 2025 Buenos Aires title, and Basel’s ATP 500, pushing him into the top-30. With Alcaraz and Sinner splitting the last eight Slams, believers see Fonseca cracking their hold by 2026.
