Sumit Nagal’s career has been a story of struggles, injuries, defeats, and a few successes along the way.
For the Indian, it all began here, in a way. In February last year, he reached the semifinals of the ATP Challenger as a wild card entry in qualifying. That performance gave him the required momentum to restart his career all over again. He went on to win a Challenger in April 2023 in Rome — becoming the first Indian to win on European clay.
