He is the only Australian representative in the competition, dreaming of achieving a historic result that reflects his progress. Álex de Miñaur appeared at a press conference of the 2026 Australian Open after reaching the round of 16, sharing insightful reflections on his career and aspirations.

Progressing every day with hard work, humility to step out of his comfort zone, and limitless ambition, Álex de Miñaur sets a great example for any young tennis player.

Álex de Miñaur's Comments After Reaching the 2026 Australian Open Round of 16

Evaluation of His Tennis against Tiafoe

"I am really pleased with my level; I played at a very high level for two and a half sets, showing that I have the power in my shots to overpower a great player. I then managed to endure in the final stretch. By alternating solidity with aggressiveness, I believe I can continue to grow as a tennis player and aim for important achievements in this tournament," stated the Australian player.

Ambition to Continue Growing as a Tennis Player

"As the years go by and I reach the round of 16 of a Grand Slam, I feel different. I have achieved this for five consecutive editions, and while I am excited about it, I am not entirely satisfied yet. I want more. I am in a position where I must aim for something greater and will strive to the fullest to achieve it," commented the Australian, who has not yet surpassed the quarterfinal stage in a Grand Slam.

"I know my tennis, I know what I want for my career, and I know that many people do not believe I can do it. That's not a problem; I will continue to give my all to prove them wrong. All they do is give me more energy to keep trying. I feel that I still have a lot to accomplish as a tennis player," stated Álex de Miñaur, who will face Alexander Bublik in the round of 16 and is a potential opponent in the quarterfinals of the 2026 Australian Open for Carlos Alcaraz.
