The 23-year-old American tennis player, Sebastian Korda currently ranks 24 in ATP singles rankings. He is 5th highest ranked among the Americans. Yet the childhood coach of Serena Williams picked his name as the ‘Most Talented’ American men’s tennis star. How was Korda’s season this year?

After featuring in the Adelaide International earlier this year, Sebastian Korda has failed to find consistency on the bigger stage. He has struggled with a wrist injury throughout the season. Korda had revealed earlier how he had struggled to even hold a racket during the Australian Open QFs this year. Despite all these struggles, he has enormous potential to uproot the woes of American tennis fans. Let’s see what Rick Macci has to say about this talented youngster.

The American tennis coach believes his forehand is quite similar to that of the Swiss Maestro. There are quite a few promising talents going around the men’s circuit in American tennis.

“He’s (Ben Shelton) a good athlete. He’s adventurous. So I love his game. Permanent picture top 10. Okay, but if you’re asking me, who I think is the best of all the Americans, I feel it’s Sebastian Korda. We said this before. I think he has the most upside, you know, Fritz‘s good, Tiafoe is good, Opelka is going to come back. Tommy Paul’s good. All these guys. If something breaks their way, can grab a slam or two, no question. You know, like a Courier like a Chang like a Roddick, because there’s a vacuum. But I think Korda you know, is the one, in my opinion, who is the most talented,” said Rick Macci.

Rick Macci has played a pivotal role in helping Serena Williams during the early stages of her career. She then went on to become one of the Greatest Of All Time in women’s tennis. But after her retirement in 2022, the question of the hour is who will carry forward the ‘Stars and Stripes’?
