An impressive lineup has reached the semifinals of Roland Garros 2026 junior men's, attracting media attention to the tournament in a way that had not happened in many years. There will be a fratricidal duel between Brazilians, featuring the renowned Luis Guto Miguel, recognized at 17 as one of the great projects in the world of tennis, facing off against Leo Storck Franca, whose one-handed backhand is astonishing the world. On the other side, the focus is on Michael Antonius, breaking records at 16 and facing his compatriot Keaton Hance, two years his senior.

Leo Storck, the Brazilian Lolo Musetti.

Fourth player with a one-handed backhand to reach the Roland Garros Jr semis in the last 10 years (Kodat, Perricard, Schoenhaus).
