Portugal Doesn't Have A Big Tennis Culture, I Want To Make History’: Jaime Faria
Arthur Ashe Stadium: Portugal’s Jaime Faria will take another significant step in his rapidly developing career when he faces defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the second round of the US Open on Wednesday, with the 23-year-old arriving at Arthur Ashe Stadium after claiming a landmark five-set victory over American Jenson Brooksby and insisting he is determined to continue pushing his limits.
Faria came through a dramatic opening-round contest against Brooksby on Sunday, recovering from the pressure of a hostile home crowd and a late surge from the American after building a two-set lead. The victory delivered his first main-draw win at the hard-court major and placed him in rare company in Portuguese tennis history.
By winning a main-draw match at the US Open, Faria became only the third Portuguese player to record victories at all four Grand Slam tournaments, following Joao Sousa and Nuno Borges. But the milestone has only strengthened his desire to achieve more.
