Joao Fonseca returns very soon to the place where he made himself known: the Australian Open. The Brazilian showcased his talent to the world by defeating Andrey Rublev in three sets, raising high expectations since then. One of the latest individuals to share his opinion about the player from Rio is Nicolas Massú, the former tennis player and coach of Dominic Thiem, who did not hesitate to praise the Brazilian: "He is a phenomenon, in terms of tennis, he is destined for great things, and I believe he will bring much joy to Brazil and South American tennis. He has the potential to compete at the top, but he must continue on his path, just as he is doing now," stated the Chilean in an interview with New Balls Please.
