19-year-old rookie pro Alex Michelsen marked his debut at the Delray Beach Open with a resounding victory, beating Thanasi Kokkinakis 6-1, 6-2. This win sets the stage for an exciting second-round clash with Tommy Paul. Michelsen, who almost joined the Georgia Bulldogs and participated in the 2022 Vero Futures, showcased his talent in this victory. The upcoming match against Paul, a former University of Georgia tennis legend like Michelsen, is highly anticipated.
