Shapovalov Just Wants To Be The Best
Denis Shapovalov is just 19 years old. Sometimes that’s easy to forget given
everything he has accomplished.
The Canadian made his first big splash not long after his 18th birthday,
beating Juan Martin del Potroand Rafael Nadal en route to the Coupe Rogers
semi-finals, becoming the youngest player to reach an ATP Tour Masters 1000
quarter-final or semi-final since the series began in 1990.
“My whole life has changed in the past five days,” Shapovalov said at the
time.
The teenager went from sleeping in a room at friend Felix Auger-Aliassime’s
house with a poster of Rafael Nadal on the wall to being a household name
himself. After becoming the youngest player to reach the fourth round of the
US Open just weeks later, Shapovalov was a budding rockstar on the ATP Tour.
Shapovalov had plenty of eyes on him throughout 2018. And he did not
disappoint, winning nearly triple the number of tour-level matches (35-28) as
he did last year and reaching three ATP Tour semi-finals. The highlight of
the year perhaps came in May.
When the Canadian arrived at the Mutua Madrid Open, he did not own a
tour-level victory on clay. Yet Shapovalov broke Nadal’s record for youngest
quarter-finalist and semi-finalist at the event by advancing to the last
four, doing for the second time at a Masters 1000 tournament. Any time you
break one of Nadal’s clay-court records, that’s a special achievement.
“Some people would mention that I had a really unsuccessful year, and I’m
just sitting thinking, ‘I’m 27 in the world, what are you guys talking
about? I was 50 last year’,” Shapovalov said. “There are always people
that are saying, ‘You should be winning titles. You should be doing this and
that.’ I try to tell them listen guys I’m only 19 and everyone’s going at
their own speed. Everyone goes at their own pace. It never got me down. I’ve
always stayed motivated, positive and so has my team.
“In 2018, I think my results were really good, actually. I didn’t have
anything unbelievable. I didn’t win any titles. But overall, I really
progressed,” Shapovalov said. “Finishing [the year] 27th in the world was
really a big step forward for me, and I hope that next year I can just keep
going forward.”
Shapovalov began 2017 at No. 250 in the ATP Rankings. This year, he started
at No. 51. And heading into 2019 as the World No. 27, he has certainly shown
steady improvement. So people will be watching to see just how high he can
climb.
“It’s a challenge for somebody so young to come out and burst onto the
scene and all of a sudden have so many expectations. It’s inevitable,” said
Shapovalov’s coach, Rob Steckley. “I think people can get lost in the
expectations. So I think that’s the challenging part for an athlete and the
team as well, to make sure that you don’t get sucked in. I think that he’s
done a great job at being able to back his [freshman] year up with some
incredible results and really proving to himself that he belongs there. I
think that’s a big challenge for somebody his age.”
The best players in the world are also very aware that Shapovalov is coming,
and quickly. Reigning Wimbledon finalist and Nitto ATP Finals qualifier Kevin
Anderson needed five grueling sets that lasted three hours and 43 minutes to
sneak by the Canadian at the US Open.
“He definitely didn't make it very easy for me out there. I think so far in
his pretty young career he has played great tennis, especially in the big
stadiums in front of thousands of people,” Anderson said. That bodes very
well for him moving forward. He's a really exciting player. Obviously he's
going to continue to mature and get more experience. You're definitely going
to be seeing a lot of him in the future.”
It’s easy to forget that Shapovalov is the youngest player in the Top 100 of
the ATP Rankings. But what might be most impressive is that, despite being
World No. 27 at 19 years old, he is nowhere near content. That’s why the
left-hander spent three weeks at the IMG Academy in Florida training this
off-season. Some days began as early as 6:00 am, and did not end until more
than 12 hours later.
“I definitely don’t get excited for fitness. It’s not something I always
look forward to, especially after four hours of court time. But that’s why
you have a team to push you,” Shapovalov said.
At the end of the day, no matter how tough training gets, or the expectations
Shapovalov faces, there’s a reason he is putting in all of the work.
“I just want to be the best,” Shapovalov said. “When I get tired, I just
think, ‘I want to be lifting trophies next year’.”
