Alejandro Davidovich Fokina

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina was born and raised in La Cala del Moral, Rincón de la Victoria, about 10 km away from Málaga, to Russian parents.[3] His father Edvard, a former boxer, has Swedish-Russian double nationality. Alex has no siblings. He began playing tennis with his father at the age of three. When he turned five, he started training at Calaflores and later Serramar tennis courts with coach Manolo Rubiales. Since 2009, Jorge Aguirre has been his coach.

Davidovich Fokina was Spanish Champion at U12, U15 and U18 levels. He started his Pro Tennis Career in 2016. He won his first ITF Grade 1 in Canada at Repentigny Internationaux de Tennis Junior, defeating Félix Auger-Aliassime 7–5, 6–7, 6–3 in the semifinal, and Liam Caruana 7–6, 7–6 in the final. In October, he won his first doubles title in a Future Tournament held in Nigeria with French player Alexis Klegou. During 2017, as a junior, Davidovich Fokina made his ATP debut at the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell in April thanks to a qualifying wild card vs. Roberto Carballés Baena, whom he defeated in three sets. He lost in the second round of qualifying to Santiago Giraldo in three sets. He also reached the junior Roland Garros semifinals, losing to Alexei Popyrin in straight sets. He defeated Rudolf Molleker 6–4, 7–6 in the first round, and won the 2017 Wimbledon boys' singles title without dropping a set, winning the final against Argentine Axel Geller.

In 2018, he was the sparring for the Davis Cup Spanish Team at the tie Spain vs. Great Britain held at Marbella. In March, Davidovich won his first ITF Futures Title K15 at Quinta do Lago in Portugal, defeating Roberto Ortega Olmedo 7–5, 4–6, 6–1. He started playing the ATP Challenger Tour during the season. He received his first qualifying wild card for ATP Masters 1000 at Madrid where he lost against Taylor Fritz 6–3, 3–6, 3–6. At the ATP Lisbon Challenger in May, he defeated Alex de Minaur 7–6, 6–4 in round one. He then lost to Christian Harrison 7–5, 6–7, 1–6 in the second. In the second round of the Wimbledon Qualifiers, he lost to Peter Polansky 5–7, 2–6. In September, Davidovich reached his first ATP Challenger final in Poland after defeating Molleker in the semifinal. He lost the final against Guido Andreozzi in three sets. During his Asian Tour, he reached the quarterfinals at Liuzhou Challenger and the semifinals at Shenzhen Challenger, also on hard courts.

In 2019, Davidovich Fokina started the season playing the first round of the Australian Open qualifier, defeating Daniel Gimeno Traver 7–5, 7–6. He reached the quarterfinals at the Chennai Challenger and the final at the Bangkok Challenger II, which he lost to James Duckworth. He made the semifinals at the Marbella Challenger on his home soil, losing to Pablo Andújar in three sets. He played his first ATP main-draw match, losing in the first round of the Grand Prix Hassan II 6–7, 5–7 to Philipp Kohlschreiber after winning two qualifying matches. Later in the month, he reached the semifinal of the 2019 Estoril Open as a qualifier, beating Gaël Monfils and Taylor Fritz along the way. Later in the year, he finally won his first ATP Challenger title defeating Jaume Munar to win the Seville Challenger. Just a month after that triumph, he won his second challenger title in Liuzhou, defeating Denis Istomin in the final. In 2020, he reached the second round of a grand slam for the first time at the Australian Open. He beat Norbert Gombos in a 5-set epic before falling to Diego Schwartzman. At the Chile Open in Santiago, he won his first ATP doubles title with fellow Spaniard Roberto Carballés Baena.

Davidovich Fokina is known for having one of the best drop shots on the ATP Tour and is sometimes referred to as the "Drop Shot King". His playing style could generally be described as more consistent but he is known to throw in the occasional rocket forehand. Although he is not the tallest of players, he makes up for this disadvantage with his quick movement and powerful groundstrokes.

Current through the 2019 Vienna Open.
