Sydkoreanske Kwon Soon-Woo kvalificerar sig till Wimbledon efter militärtjänstgöring

Svenska

Den sydkoreanska tennisspelaren Kwon Soon-Woo har säkrat en plats i Wimbledonkvalet efter starka resultat i Challenger-turneringar. 28-åringen balanserar sin karriär med den obligatoriska militärtjänstgöring som påbörjades i december 2024.

Kwon Soon-Woo har vunnit tre Challenger-titlar i år i Phan Thiet, Gwangju och Wuxi. Dessa segrar tog honom tillbaka till topp 200 på världsrankingen och gav honom en plats i 2026 års kvalspel till Wimbledon. Han fortsätter att träna med Korea Armed Forces Athletic Corps samtidigt som han fullgör sin 18 månader långa värnplikt.
