Christopher Eubanks has made a remarkable resurgence in his career, defying expectations and finding success at Wimbledon 2023. The former Georgia Tech standout had initially appeared to be heading away from being tennis player as he struggled to break through on the professional tour, but he was able to put together a fantastic ascension.
Eubanks is now experiencing the best run of his career. He reached the round of 16 at Wimbledon 2023, which included a win over last year’s semifinalist Cameron Norrie. His next opponent will be none other than Stefanos Tsitsipas, a significant challenge for the rising star.

“I have known Foxx for a few years now, two, three years now, and he’s become really, really close friend, someone I can call if I just want to talk through life a little bit”, Eubanks explained about his relationship with the star.
Foxx has also been vocal in backing the player. “He’s got everybody by the heart right in there. Everybody rooting for him, we came out here to support him. Got off to a great start, and now we’re going to bring it on home”, Foxx said in a video before Eubanks played at the Miami Open.
Another notable moment they shared was when Eubanks finally broke into the top 100, with Foxx posting a message on his Instagram account. “Blood sweat and tears and true hard work has paid off for my good friend @chris_eubanks96. Tennis is your passion, my friend, continue to rise and congratulations on breaking into the top 100 players in the world”, Foxx wrote then.
