Moez Echargui

Career

Echargui qualified for the singles competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris after winning the gold medal at the African Games earlier that year. At age 32 and six months, he claimed his first ATP Challenger title at the 2025 Porto Open as a qualifier, defeating Francesco Maestrelli; this made him the second oldest first-time champion on the Challenger Tour and the second champion from Tunisia. He reached a new career-high singles ranking of world No. 211 on 4 August 2025.

After winning an M25 ITF title in Monastir, Tunisia, he entered the top 200 on 18 August 2025, becoming the Tunisian No. 1 player. He then won a Challenger in Hersonissos, extending a winning streak to 17 consecutive matches. In September 2025, he won the biggest title of his career at the Challenger 125 Saint-Tropez Open, defeating alternate Dan Added in straight sets, and reached the top 150 on 22 September 2025. He made his ATP main draw debut at the 2025 Moselle Open in Metz as a lucky loser, replacing second seed Daniil Medvedev and starting directly in the second round; he was the third oldest player to achieve that feat since 1990, excluding Davis Cup or Olympics.
