Meet Lilli Tagger, the 17-year-old tennis prodigy who's already being compared to tennis legends Carlos Alcaraz and Ashleigh Barty. Tagger, currently ranked 222nd in the world, has already achieved a lot in her young career, including a title at the 2025 French Open. But what's truly remarkable is her meteoric rise in the rankings, having jumped 300 spots in just a few months. Tagger's talent is evident in her impressive win-loss record, including three ITF titles in 2025. She's also reached four consecutive semi-finals at a WTA 75 level, making the final on three of those occasions. Tagger's versatility and one-handed backhand make her a player to watch, and her coach, Francesca Schiavone, is a legend in her own right, having won the French Open in 2010. With her talent, hard work, and the right guidance, Tagger could very well be a top 50 player in the near future.
