The story of SoonWoo Kwon is like a movie and involves tremendous merit on the part of a player who has not only accepted something very difficult to understand outside of South Korea for his country but is also using it as a spur. Shortly after achieving his best ranking, 52nd in the world, the South Korean found himself forced to step away from tennis to fulfill his mandatory military service, which he is currently undergoing.

However, he receives special permits to compete in Challenger tournaments in his country and immediate surroundings. He is achieving such good results that he has reached 189th in the world, alternating between the rifle and the racket, enabling him to secure a place in the qualifying rounds of Wimbledon 2026. It is expected that the South Korean authorities will allow him to travel to London.
