Nout has been passionate about tennis from a young age, dedicating time to develop both his skills and fitness. His playing style is built around an attacking approach, with his forehand being a key weapon to set up opportunities for approaching the net.

On the court, Nout is known for his solid forehand, which helps him take charge of rallies and put pressure on his opponents. He currently trains about 8 hours per week and makes time to play once a week besides his training sessions. 

Nout competes regularly in tournaments, participating in Junior Tennis (JT) events as well as the spring and fall league matches. In the summer, he also plays additional open tournaments to challenge himself and gain more experience. Some of his notable results include:

• 3-6 6-2 6-3 win over Elijah de Getrouwe (UTR 8.79)
• 6-1 6-2 win over Jesse Vrencken (UTR 8.07)
• 6-7 4-6 loss to Noah Strous (UTR 8.58)

In addition to his tennis, Nout’s academic interests lie in sports science and history. 

Looking ahead, Nout is excited about the opportunity to further develop both his tennis skills and academic interests. He hopes to find a university where he can continue growing as both a student and an athlete, while contributing to a strong team.
