As a junior, Shapovalov was ranked as high as No. 2 in the world. He won two junior Grand Slam titles, with his first being the doubles title at the 2015 US Open with Auger-Aliassime and his second, the singles title at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships. As a professional, Shapovalov broke into the top 100 for the first time in 2017 after making the semifinals of the 2017 Canadian Open; at the age of 18, he became the youngest player ever to reach the semifinal of an ATP Masters 1000 tournament. The next year, Shapovalov followed up his success with a second Masters semifinal appearance at the 2018 Madrid Open and ended the year ranked inside the top 30, making him the youngest player to enter the echelon in 2018. In 2019, Shapovalov won his first ATP title at the 2019 Stockholm Open and made his first Masters finals appearance at the 2019 Paris Masters, after which he ended the year ranked No. 15. For 2020, Shapovalov reached his first-ever Grand Slam quarterfinal at the 2020 US Open and his fourth Masters semifinals at the 2020 Italian Open, taking him to his career-high ranking of No. 10. Though Shapovalov broke his four-year streak of Masters semifinal appearances, he made two more tour final appearances in 2021, one of which was his first-ever final on clay at the 2021 Geneva Open.

With partner Rohan Bopanna, Shapovalov has also achieved success in doubles at the Grand Slam level, having reached his first quarterfinal at the 2020 US Open, and the Masters level after making five quarterfinals and one semifinal. Together, they also reached their first doubles final at the 2019 MercedesCup, which brought Shapovalov to a then-career-high doubles ranking of world No. 130 and moved him past Adil Shamasdin to become the No. 1 Canadian doubles player. After their quarterfinal appearance at the 2019 Paris Masters, he broke into the top 50 in doubles for the first time and became the highest-ranked doubles player under the age of 25.

As a left-handed player with a one-handed backhand, Shapovalov plays an overall aggressive, high-risk ground game and has some of the biggest groundstrokes on tour that are complemented by his powerful forehand and big serve. He also often plays serve-and-volley to quickly close points, which has rewarded him on quick surfaces. In recognition of his breakout tennis success in 2017, his peers on the ATP Tour voted him as the ATP Most Improved Player and ATP Star of Tomorrow. That same year, he was also awarded the Lionel Conacher Award as Canada's male athlete of the year, making him the second tennis player to have won the award since its inception in 1932.

Early life

Shapovalov was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, the son of Tessa Shapovalova and Viktor Shapovalov.[4][5] His mother (born in Lviv, Ukraine, then part of the Soviet Union) was on the Soviet national tennis team, and moved from the Soviet Union to Tel Aviv with Denis' father when the Soviet Union was collapsing. She eventually became a tennis coach there.[6] His mother is a Ukrainian Jew,[7][8][9] and his father is a Russian Orthodox Christian.[10][11] Shapovalov has one sibling, his older brother Evgeniy, who was also born in Israel.[12]

The family moved from Israel to Canada before Denis' first birthday.[13][14] He then lived in Vaughan, Ontario.[15] He started playing tennis at the Richmond Hill Country Club, where his mother got a job as a coach two weeks after arriving in Toronto from Tel Aviv. Denis began playing tennis at age 5, and quickly became obsessed with the game. When it became difficult to get Denis enough time on the Richmond Hill club's courts, his mother left her job there and eventually opened her own tennis academy in Vaughan, named TessaTennis, to help give him a home base to train and to teach the game to other juniors.[6] She is still his coach, along with Martin Laurendeau.[16][6] Shapovalov attended Stephen Lewis Secondary School in Vaughan.[17] He is nicknamed "Shapo"[1] or "Deni".

Shapovalov is fluent in Russian. He gave his first interview in Russian to Russian Eurosport commentators.[18][19] He now lives in Nassau, Bahamas,[20] but plays for Canada, and holds Canadian citizenship.

Tennis career

Juniors

When Shapovalov was 13, his training needs were too much for his mother to handle on her own. It was at this point that the family hired Adriano Fuorivia, a former manager of tennis development for Tennis Canada, to be his personal coach and travel with Shapovalov while his parents stayed home to run the academy.[21] The relationship between Shapovalov and Adriano lasted four years, and included numerous junior and ITF futures titles, including the 2015 US Open Junior Doubles title and the 2016 Wimbledon Junior Singles title.[22] In October 2013, Shapovalov won his first junior singles title at the ITF G5 in Burlington, Ontario.[23] He captured his second singles title in April 2014 at the ITF G5 in Burlington.[24] In July 2014, Shapovalov won the singles and doubles titles at the ITF G4 in San José.[25] At the US Open in September 2015, he qualified in singles and made it to the third round for his second straight Grand Slam. In doubles, he won the title with partner Félix Auger-Aliassime.[26] In October 2015, Shapovalov and fellow Canadians Félix Auger-Aliassime and Benjamin Sigouin captured the first Junior Davis Cup title for Canada in its history.[27] At the French Open in May 2016, he advanced to the semifinals in singles and to the second round in doubles.[28] At the beginning of July 2016, he captured his first G1 singles title after winning in Roehampton.[29] A week later, Shapovalov became the third Canadian to win a junior Grand Slam singles title with a three-set victory over Alex De Minaur at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships. He also reached the doubles final with Félix Auger-Aliassime.[30]

As a junior, he compiled a singles win/loss record of 86–32.[31]

2015–16: Early years

In late November 2015, Shapovalov won his first professional doubles title at the ITF Futures in Pensacola.[32] In January 2016, he reached the doubles final at the ITF Futures in Sunrise.[33] A week later, he captured his first professional singles title with a straight-set victory over Pedro Sakamoto at the ITF Futures in Weston.[34] In March 2016, he reached the semifinals of the Challenger Banque Nationale de Drummondville, beating his first top 100 player in Austin Krajicek before losing to Daniel Evans in three sets.[35]

In April 2016, Shapovalov won his second and third singles titles after defeating world No. 286 Tennys Sandgren at the ITF 25K in Memphis and winning the ITF 10K in Orange Park over Miomir Kecmanović two weeks later.[36] He also won the doubles title in Orange Park.[37] In July 2016, Shapovalov was awarded a wildcard for the tournament in Washington, his first ATP main draw appearance. He was defeated by Lukáš Lacko in three sets.[38] Shapovalov then was awarded a wildcard for the 2016 Rogers Cup the next week. In the first round he upset world No. 19 Nick Kyrgios, beating him in three sets to win his first tour level match.[39] He was defeated by No. 40 Grigor Dimitrov in straight sets in the next round.[40]

2017: Breakthrough – Grand Slam debut, first Masters semifinal, top 50 debut
Shapovalov at the 2017 Queen's Club Championships

In February 2017, Shapovalov was selected to play for the Canada Davis Cup team in the World Group 1st round tie against Great Britain, and lost his opener to Dan Evans. In the deciding rubber against Kyle Edmund, he accidentally hit the chair umpire, Arnaud Gabas, in the eye after launching a ball aimlessly towards the crowd in anger after dropping serve in the opening stages of the third set, leading to immediate disqualification for unsportsmanlike behaviour, and as a result, Great Britain won the tie 3–2.[41]

In March in Gatineau, Shapovalov captured his fourth ITF Futures singles title after defeating Gleb Sakharov in straight sets.[42] Two weeks later, he won his first ATP Challenger title with a victory over Ruben Bemelmans at the 75K in Drummondville, and was the youngest Canadian to win a Challenger until Félix Auger-Aliassime's victory at the Open Sopra Steria de Lyon later in the year.[43] The next week, he was defeated by Mirza Bašić in the final of the ATP Challenger 50K in Guadalajara, stopping his winning streak at 17 matches.[44] At the French Open in May, his first professional Grand Slam, he was defeated in the first round of qualifying by the first seed Marius Copil in three sets.[45] In June, Shapovalov qualified for the ATP 500 at the Queen's Club Championships, his fourth ATP main draw but his first as a qualifier. In the first round, he defeated his second top 50 player, world No. 47 Kyle Edmund, before losing to world No. 14 Tomáš Berdych.[46]

At Wimbledon in July, Shapovalov made his Grand Slam debut after he was awarded a wildcard for the main draw.[47] He was defeated by Jerzy Janowicz in the opening round.[48] At the end of the month, he won his second ATP Challenger title, defeating compatriot Peter Polansky in the final of the 75K in Gatineau.[49]

Shapovalov experienced a significant breakthrough in August at the Rogers Cup when he defeated world No. 31 Juan Martín del Potro in the second round and world No. 2 Rafael Nadal in the next round, which was his first-ever match against a top 10 player.[50] He went on to defeat world No. 42 Adrian Mannarino in the quarterfinals before bowing out to world No. 8 Alexander Zverev in the semifinals, thus becoming the youngest player ever to reach an ATP World Tour Masters 1000 semifinal.[51][52]

Despite his achievements at the Rogers Cup, Shapovalov had to qualify to enter the main draw of the US Open. In the qualifying rounds, he defeated Denis Kudla, Gastão Elias, and Jan Šátral. In the main draw, Shapovalov defeated Daniil Medvedev in the first round, then No. 8 seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the second. He reached the fourth round by defeating Kyle Edmund in four sets, becoming the youngest player to reach the fourth round since Michael Chang in 1989.[53] He was defeated by world No. 19 Pablo Carreño Busta in the fourth round, after which he reached his career-high ATP ranking of World No. 51 on 11 September 2017.[54]

Shapovalov was offered a wildcard to the main draw of the Shanghai Masters in October where he lost in the first round to Viktor Troicki in three sets.[55][56] He also lost in the first round of the Paris Masters two weeks later to Julien Benneteau.[57] In November, Shapovalov competed in the inaugural Next Generation ATP Finals along with seven other top singles players aged 21 and under. Seeded third, Shapovalov finished third in his Group with a record of one win and two losses in round robin play, which was not enough to qualify for the semifinals.[58]

2018: Top 30 debut
Shapovalov at the 2018 US Open

Shapovalov began his 2018 season at the Brisbane International, where he lost in the first round in both singles, to Kyle Edmund, and doubles, to eventual winners Henri Kontinen and John Peers.[59] At the ASB Classic, he defeated Rogério Dutra Silva in the opening round but was knocked out in the second round to second seed Juan Martín del Potro in straight sets.[60] At the Australian Open, Shapovalov won his first round match over Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets, but lost in the next round to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in five sets despite leading Tsonga 5–2 in the deciding set.[61]

Shapovalov then made his debut at the Delray Beach Open where he reached the semifinals. He defeated Ivo Karlović, Jared Donaldson, and Taylor Fritz in the first three rounds, before falling to eventual champion Frances Tiafoe.[62] The next week at the Mexican Open, Shapovalov defeated former world No. 4 Kei Nishikori in three sets in the first round but lost to world No. 6 Dominic Thiem in the second round.[63] Shapovalov started his March campaign making his debut at Indian Wells, defeating qualifier Ričardas Berankis in the opening round. He lost however to 30th seed Pablo Cuevas in the second round.[64] At the Miami Open, he defeated Viktor Troicki, world No. 30 Damir Džumhur, and world No. 14 Sam Querrey in the first three rounds. He was defeated by Borna Ćorić in the fourth round.[65]

Shapovalov started off his maiden clay court season at the Monte-Carlo Masters, where he lost in straight sets to qualifier Stefanos Tsitsipas in the first round.[66] At his second clay court tournament, the Hungarian Open, he once again lost in the first round, this time to Nikoloz Basilashvili.[67] At the Madrid Open, he defeated Tennys Sandgren and Benoît Paire, before knocking out compatriot Milos Raonic to reach the quarterfinals. He then defeated Kyle Edmund to become the youngest semifinalist in Madrid Open history.[68] He subsequently lost in straight sets to world No. 3 and eventual champion Alexander Zverev.[69] Shapovalov's victories here were his first on a clay surface and propelled him to the ATP Top 30 for the first time in his career.[70] He became the youngest top-30 player since Richard Gasquet in 2005.[71] The following week at the Italian Open, Shapovalov beat Tomáš Berdych in three sets and Robin Haase also in three sets to set up a rematch with Rafael Nadal in the third round.[72] With the win over Berdych, he became Canada's new number one in singles.[73] He was defeated by Nadal in straight sets.[74] Shapovalov continued the momentum at the French Open defeating John Millman in straight sets in the first round, but lost to Maximilian Marterer in the next round.[75]

Shapovalov next entered the Stuttgart Open, his first tournament of the season on grass, but lost in the first round to qualifier Prajnesh Gunneswaran.[76] The next week at the Queen's Club Championships, he lost again in the opening round this time to Gilles Müller.[77] Despite the struggles, Shapovalov entered the Eastbourne Championships. Seeded third, he defeated Jared Donaldson in his second round matchup only to lose to Mischa Zverev in the quarterfinals.[78] In his first ever appearance at Wimbledon, Shapovalov won his first round match by defeating Jeremy Chardy, but lost to Benoit Paire in the next round after taking the first set 6–0.[79]

Shapovalov started the 2018 North American summer hard court swing leading up to the US Open seeded 9th at the Citi Open in Washington, DC, where he defeated Daniil Medvedev before losing to 7th seed Kei Nishikori in the quarterfinals.[80][81] The following week Shapovalov returned home to Toronto and the Rogers Cup, the tournament where he experienced his 2017 ATP World Tour semifinal breakthrough. Shapovalov handily defeated Jeremy Chardy and fiery Italian Fabio Fognini in straight sets,[82][83] before being knocked out of his home tournament in the Round of 16 by Robin Haase.[84] In his first appearance at the Cincinnati Masters on August 13, Shapovalov defeated fellow NextGen ATP up and comer Frances Tiafoe and frequent opponent Kyle Edmund, before going down in the Round of 16 to fellow countryman Milos Raonic, who avenged his loss to Shapovalov during their maiden meeting at the Madrid Open in May.[85][86][87]

In his second US Open appearance, 28th seed Shapovalov encountered long-time friend and fellow Canadian Félix Auger-Aliassime in a highly anticipated first-round match-up. After the two split the first two sets, Auger-Aliassime was forced to retire from the match.[88][89] Shapovalov then defeated Andreas Seppi in a five-set marathon in the next round,[90] but then fell in the round of 32 to 5th seed Kevin Anderson in another five-set match that lasted close to four hours.[91]

2019: First ATP title, first Masters final, Davis Cup final
Shapovalov at the 2019 Paris Masters

Shapovalov began his 2019 season at the Auckland Open, where seeded seventh, he was defeated by Joao Sousa in three sets.[92] At the Australian Open, he defeated Pablo Andujar and Taro Daniel before being stopped in four sets by six-time and eventual champion Novak Djokovic in their first singles match.[93] His next tournament saw him out in straight sets to Pierre-Hughes Herbert in the quarterfinals. He was also knocked out in the quarterfinals of the Rotterdam Open, but was able to defeat perennial Top-10 player Tomas Berdych before being defeated by former champion Stan Wawrinka.[94] After a dismal opening loss to Mikhail Kukushkin in the Open 13, Shapovalov turned his attention to Indian Wells. He defeated former U.S. Open champion Marin Cilic before being stopped by Hubert Hurkacz in the Round of 16.[95] His Miami Open campaign was more fruitful as he was able to defeat fellow NextGen players Stefanos Tsitsipas and Frances Tiafoe on the way to the semifinals. Although he and fellow Canadian Félix Auger-Aliassime were semifinalists and had a chance to face off in the finals, both were defeated by veteran champions; Auger-Aliassime by defending champion John Isner, and Shapovalov by eventual champion Roger Federer in their first singles match.[96] This propelled him for the first time to Top 20 in the world.[97] On 20 October 2019, Shapovalov won his first ATP title at the Stockholm Open, defeating Filip Krajinović in straight sets.[98] At the Paris Masters, the tour's final tournament of the year, Shapovalov secured a top 20 year-end finish after beating Gilles Simon, Fabio Fognini, Alexander Zverev, and Gaël Monfils to reach the semifinals. There, due to a last-minute retirement from Rafael Nadal, he reached his first Masters 1000 final,[99] where he lost to Novak Djokovic in straight sets.[100] He finished the season at a career-high ranking of number 15.

In the 2019 Davis Cup Finals, Shapovalov and Vasek Pospisil teamed up to single-handedly take Canada to its first-ever Davis Cup final in the 119-year history of the event, defeating Russia, Australia, the United States and Italy en route to the finals.[101]

2020: First Grand Slam quarterfinal, top 10 debut

At the 2020 Australian Open Shapovalov was seeded 13th but lost in four sets in the first round to Marton Fucsovics of Hungary.[102]

Shapovalov was seeded 12th at the 2020 US Open.[103] Following victories over Sebastian Korda of the United States,[104] Kwon Soon-woo of South Korea,[105] and the 19th seed Taylor Fritz of the United States, Shapovalov advanced to the round of 16 at Flushing Meadows for the first time since he did so in his Open debut as an 18 year old first time qualifier in 2017.[106][107] In the Round of 16, he defeated David Goffin of Belgium in 4 sets. He then left the tournament after losing to Pablo Carreño Busta of Spain in the quarterfinals in five sets.[108] Following his run to the Italian Open semifinals, Shapovalov entered the top 10 for the first time on 21 September 2020.[109]

2021: First Grand Slam semifinal

Shapovalov started his season at the ATP Cup as the No. 1 player for Team Canada,[110] where he lost to Team Serbia's Novak Djokovic in straight sets[111] and to Team Germany's Alexander Zverev in three sets.[112] He continued the Australian swing at the Australian Open as the eleventh seed, and beat Jannik Sinner[113] and Bernard Tomic[114] before he lost to compatriot Félix Auger-Aliassime in straight sets in the third round.[115] Remarking upon his first loss to Auger-Aliassime since the 2019 Madrid Open, Shapovalov said, "[I] thought I had all the momentum and then just got tight. [I] just sprayed four points in a row. Nerves got to me a little bit, and after that he got some belief and he started playing really well. It was tough after that."[115]

In March, Shapovalov took on the Middle East swing of the year, and entered the Qatar Open as the fourth seed. There, he beat compatriot Vasek Pospisil in straight sets[116] before he lost to Taylor Fritz in three sets in the quarterfinals.[117] Next, Shapovalov entered the Dubai Tennis Championships as the third seed. He reached the semifinals without dropping a set to Jan-Lennard Struff, Hubert Hurkacz, and Jérémy Chardy, but he fell to qualifier Lloyd Harris in three sets despite leading by a set and a break in the match.[118] Shapovalov closed out the month by entering the Miami Open as the sixth seed, but he lost in the third round to eventual champion Hurkacz.[119]

For the year's clay season, Shapovalov began at the Barcelona Open as the seventh seed and again beat Chardy in straight sets,[120] before he notched his second loss of the year to Auger-Aliassime in the third round, after which, he blamed a shoulder injury for his loss of form in the match.[121] Top-seeded Shapovalov embarked on the Estoril Open but he quickly exited after losing to Corentin Moutet in three sets in his first match despite leading by a break in the deciding set.[122] Shapovalov saw more heartbreak in Madrid when he lost to Alexander Bublik in three sets in the second round after hitting fourteen double faults,[123] and in Rome after he lost in three sets to eventual champion Rafael Nadal in the third round, despite having match points.[124] Amid the string of tight losses in his singles matches, Shapovalov and his doubles partner, Rohan Bopanna, were able to topple top seeds Juan Sebastián Cabal and Robert Farah in straight sets in the doubles tournament in Madrid en route to the quarterfinals before they lost to semifinalists Tim Pütz and Zverev.[125] Shapovalov's last tournament of the clay swing was the Geneva Open, where he entered as the second seed and notched his longest win streak on the surface this year to reach his first clay-court final after beating Marco Cecchinato,[126] Laslo Đere,[127] and Pablo Cuevas, making it his second career semifinal win.[128] In the final, he faced off against third seed Casper Ruud and ultimately lost in straight sets.[129] In summary of his performance this year on clay, Shapovalov stated, "I just think I’ve got to keep doing the same thing. Just playing my game. I’m playing a lot more relaxed now and more patient. For sure I’m playing good on the clay and it was definitely a great week for me."[129] Despite finding his form just ahead of the French Open, in an unanticipated development, Shapovalov issued a statement the following day, announcing his withdrawal from the major due to his lingering shoulder injury, effectively ending his season on the surface.[130]

After a three-week break, Shapovalov kicked off his grass season in June at the Stuttgart Open as the first seed and defeated Feliciano López[131] before he succumbed to eventual champion Marin Čilić in the quarterfinals.[132] Next, Shapovalov traveled to the Queen's Club Championships, where he was the second seed. He made it to the semifinals without dropping a set, having beaten Aleksandar Vukic,[133] López,[134] and Frances Tiafoe before he lost to eventual finalist Cameron Norrie in straight sets.[135]

Shapovalov at the 2021 Wimbledon Championships

Seeded tenth at Wimbledon, Shapovalov reached the third round at the tournament for the first time in his career by defeating Philipp Kohlschreiber in five sets[136] and by receiving a walkover from Pablo Andújar in the second round.[137] He then defeated former world No. 1 and two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray[138] and eighth seed Roberto Bautista Agut, both in straight sets, to reach his first quarterfinal at Wimbledon.[139] In the quarterfinal, Shapovalov closed out his match against Karen Khachanov in five sets to reach his first-ever major semifinal by rallying from two-sets-to-one down.[140] In the semifinal, Shapovalov faced eventual champion Djokovic; though he served for the first set, Shapovalov dropped serve and could not regain the momentum for the remainder of the set. He also failed to convert ten of the eleven total break points he had on Djokovic's serve in the match, while only saving seven of ten on his own serve, thus allowing Djokovic to eventually seal the match in straight sets.[141] With his successful run at Wimbledon, Shapovalov reentered the top ten of the rankings for the first time since September 2020 and rose two spots to No. 10.[142]

I think it's probably one of my best performances, even outside of Wimbledon. I think I definitely played really flawless today and just super solid. It was an incredible experience. It was a dream of mine to grow up one day and play on the Centre Court at Wimbledon. I have seen so many legends play there, and it's always just been a huge goal of mine.

—Shapovalov, reflecting on his performance after defeating Andy Murray at the 2021 Wimbledon Championships[138]

Following Wimbledon, Shapovalov decided to forgo competing at the 2020 Summer Olympics and cited his concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and his safety were he to travel and attend.[143] However, he later entered the Swiss Open, which occurred simultaneously with the Olympics, and was listed as the first seed.[144] In an upset loss, he was defeated by qualifier Vít Kopřiva in three sets in his first match there.[145]

Shapovalov faced consecutive setbacks as he embarked on the season's North American hard court swing. At the Canadian Open, he entered as the fifth seed,[146] but quickly crashed out of his first match after losing to lucky loser Tiafoe in straight sets.[147] Shapovalov was the sixth seed going into the Cincinnati Masters the following week, but he also lost his first match there, this time to Benoît Paire in three sets.[148] The loss marked his third consecutive defeat in first matches by lower-ranked opponents following his semifinal appearance at Wimbledon.[149] Heading to the US Open as a defending quarterfinalist, he entered as the seventh seed[150] and swiftly defeated Federico Delbonis[151] and Roberto Carballés Baena[152] in straight sets before he lost to Harris in straight sets in the third round.[153] Following the disappointment, Shapovalov made his third appearance at the Laver Cup as a member of Team World and contributed to the team's only win over Team Europe by winning his doubles match with partner John Isner against Matteo Berrettini and Alexander Zverev.[154] In the road leading up to the year's Indian Wells Masters, the final tournament of this year's swing, Shapovalov entered into the inaugural San Diego Open as the fourth seed. After beating Taylor Fritz in straight sets, he won just four games in his straight-set loss to Cameron Norrie in his first quarterfinal since Wimbledon to make it his second loss to Norrie this year.[155] Shapovalov did not fare much better at Indian Wells, where he lost to Aslan Karatsev in straight sets in the third round.[156] However, together with long-time doubles partner Rohan Bopanna, the duo made it further and landed in the doubles' quarterfinals before they lost to eventual finalists Karatsev and Andrey Rublev.[157]

In the tour's closing European indoor hard court swing, Shapovalov attended the St. Petersburg Open as the second seed. He defeated Andújar in three sets[158] before he lost to Struff in straight sets in the quarterfinals, a loss he blamed mostly on his jet lag.[159] In the doubles tournament, he partnered once more for the year with Bopanna and the duo toppled second seeds Raven Klaasen and Ben McLachlan in the quarterfinals[160] before they lost to fourth seeds Andrey Golubev and Hugo Nys in the semifinals.[161] For his last tournament of the year, Shapovalov entered the Stockholm Open as the third seed and reigning champion. After defeating Andrea Vavassori,[162] Arthur Rinderknech,[163] and Auger-Aliassime, Shapovalov set himself up for a title defense by reaching the final, his second of the year.[164] There, he met Tommy Paul, and though he saved ten break points in the three-set match, he ultimately ceded the championship to Paul.[165] Shapovalov ended the year ranked No. 14.[166]

Playing style

As a left-handed player with a single-handed backhand, Shapovalov is known for his bold style and high-risk shot making on court, with his leaping backhand considered one of his most memorable shots.[167][168] Australian tennis coach and former player Darren Cahill drew comparisons between Shapovalov's backhand and that of Stan Wawrinka, specifically noting how both their flexibility and racquet speed were the two main components that drove the power of the shot.[169][170] His all-around ground game has thus been described as "explosive," with a powerful forehand to complement his backhand.[171][172] He also often plays serve-and-volley, particularly on quick surfaces, in a bid to catch his opponent off-guard and quickly close points.[168][169][173][174] Commentators have also noted Shapovalov's big serve,[171] and American tennis coach and former player Brad Gilbert found similarities between Shapovalov's serve and that of John McEnroe, noticing that Shapovalov's similar angle and spin on the ball both had comparable trajectories, and that it was his athleticism in launching his body into the serve that helped drive the power instead of simply through his positioning.[170]

However, due to the aggressive overall nature of his style of play, in addition to making many winners, Shapovalov is known to produce a similarly high amount of unforced errors in matches.[175] Following his breakthrough, he worked with his coaches to rein in his style when necessary in order to polish his shotmaking,[175] but he has asserted that playing aggressive is how he enjoys his tennis best and he explained at a press conference in 2021: "When I am playing ugly I do not feel comfortable being on court, that is why winning like that is hard for me. I think that when I am feeling good, when everything flows it is very hard to outplay me."[176]

Coaching

Shapovalov has been coached since he was young by his mother, Tessa Shapovalova. He developed his one-handed backhand at the age of six and his net instincts all under her direction.[170][168] In early-2017, Martin Laurendeau joined Shapovalov to polish his one-handed backhand motion and help him drive through the shot.[170] In the fall of 2018, Shapovalov added Rob Steckley to his coaching team, replacing Laurendeau, who could no longer travel with them due to a back injury. In April 2019, Steckley confirmed that the two ended their association. That same month, Shapovalov reunited with his junior coach, Adriano Fuorivia, who had coached him to his 2016 Wimbledon boys' singles title.[177] Former world No. 8 Mikhail Youzhny was added to the coaching team as Shapovalov's new "shot selection" coach in August 2019 at the 2019 Winston-Salem Open.[178] Youzhny helped Shapovalov develop his backhand slice, among other adjustments.[179] In December 2021, it was reported Jamie Delgado had joined Shapovalov's team after five years of working with Andy Murray.[180]

Endorsements

Since June 2020, Shapovalov has been represented by IMG.[181] Shapovalov is sponsored by Nike for his apparel and footwear and was the face of the company's 2018 US Open collection along with Sloane Stephens.[182] Yonex has provided him with tennis rackets since signing with him in 2017,[183] and he has used the Yonex VCore 95 racket since January 2021.[184] Shapovalov has also been sponsored by BioSteel Sports Nutrition since 2016[185] and has been a brand ambassador for TAG Heuer since 2017.[186]
