My Goal Is To Bring Tennis Back To Life In India, Says Teen Sensation Hitesh Chauhan
French Open Juniors: The 17-year-old Hitesh Chauhan, who recently became the first Indian to reach the second round of the French Open Juniors since 2016, has set his sights on a goal much bigger than winning a Grand Slam - reigniting the diminishing flame of tennis in the country.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, the young talent opened up about his dream of representing India in Grand Slams and breaking into the top 30 of the ATP rankings. For Chauhan, it’s not just about personal glory — it’s about inspiring a generation and reviving interest in tennis nationwide.
"It’s going to be a long, tough journey. I don’t think I’m even halfway there, but through it all, I just want to make my country, my parents, my coaches, Roundglass —everyone—proud. I want every Indian to see tennis. I want them to see an Indian playing Grand Slams, being in the top 50, and top 30 in the ATP rankings.
