Leaping Into Hearts

Aussie young gun Alex De Minaur shows why he’s such a crowd favourite, running, sliding and leaping into hearts across the country, and the world. With big scalps already this year in both Brisbane & Sydney he certainly is a rare talent and his career will be an exciting one to follow. 06 Jan 2018.
