Abdullah Shelbayh, a Jordanian professional tennis player, made a remarkable impression on the second day of the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by NEOM. As reported by the ATP Tour website, Shelbayh, despite being the lowest-ranked player at the finals, displayed his considerable talent on Wednesday night.
The 20-year-old triumphed over Alex Michelsen, particularly excelling in the last two sets by strategically moving his opponent around the court. His performance has put him in a favorable position to advance to the semi-finals in the red group.
Post-match, Shelbayh expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to play at the finals, considering it an ideal way to end the year. He also acknowledged and appreciated the support he’s received throughout the week and the year, especially from the Arab world.
