This is Jack Tigges, a passionate and talented tennis player from Amsterdam. Jack started playing tennis at the age of seven, after having played soccer during his childhood. At the age of thirteen, he made a conscious decision to focus entirely on tennis and joined a tennis academy.

In addition, he is a true team player who enjoys working together with others and motivating them. He has been his team’s captain for three years now, which underscores his leadership qualities.
