Take note of his name, Karim Bennani. The young Moroccan has just made history in his own country. Ranked number 731, he received a wildcard to participate in his first ATP tournament and has not disappointed. The 18-year-old tennis player has defeated Quentin Halys in the first round of the 2026 ATP Marrakech with a score of 6-4, 6-7(5), 6-2, after two hours and 19 minutes of play. With this victory, Bennani climbs 157 spots to reach the 574th position. He will have a second golden opportunity, this time against the winner of the match between Jesper De Jong and Yannick Hanfmann.

Bold. 18-year-old. Bennani. 😤
