Top 12 tallest male tennis players on tour in 2025

Reilly Opelka is the tallest player currently in tennis.
In tennis, height can be advantageous, as players have an edge over the net, and longer strides help them reach the ball quicker than others. They can cover more parts of the court; however, managing the body becomes a challenge.
Hence, while being tall helps, most players on this list are prone to injuries. While legends like John Isner and Ivo Karlovic have retired, a new generation of towering athletes continues to make their mark on the ATP Tour.
On that note, let’s take a look at the top 12 tallest male tennis players on tour in 2025.
Tallest male tennis players on tour in 2025-
12. Hubert Hurkacz (6 feet 5 inches / 1.96 m)

Hubert Hurkacz is Poland’s highest-ranked male tennis player in history. Hurkacz has captured eight ATP singles titles, including two Masters 1000 crowns at the 2021 Miami Open and 2023 Shanghai Masters, becoming the first Polish man to win at that level.
His career-defining moment came at Wimbledon 2021, where he defeated Roger Federer in straight sets en route to the semifinals. In 2024, the Pole achieved a career-high ranking of World No. 6, reached quarterfinals at all nine Masters events, and won his first clay-court title in Estoril.
11. Matteo Berrettini (6 feet 5 inches / 1.96 m)

Matteo Berrettini rose to prominence with a semifinal appearance at the 2019 US Open and later reached his first Major final at Wimbledon. After a semifinal showing at the 2022 Australian Open, he achieved a career-high ranking of No. 6. Despite injury setbacks, the Italian has won ten ATP singles titles, including a successful title defense at Queen’s Club.
10. Taylor Fritz (6 feet 5 inches / 1.96 m)

Taylor Fritz has emerged as the top-ranked American men’s player, with ten ATP titles to his name, including four at Eastbourne, and a Masters 1000 crown at Indian Wells in 2022. The American uses his height to deliver a strong serve and dictate play from the baseline, making him a regular in the ATP top 10.
Currently ranked No. 5, he reached the Wimbledon semifinal for the first time in 2025, but his best Grand Slam result came at the 2024 US Open, where he lost in the final to Jannik Sinner.
9. Karen Khachanov (6 feet 6 inches / 1.98 m)
Karen Khachanov made headlines by defeating Novak Djokovic to win the 2018 Paris Masters, which remains his biggest achievement so far.
The Russian has since claimed an Olympic silver medal and reached the semifinals of both the US Open (2022) and Australian Open (2023), and recorded his best outing at Wimbledon 2025, finishing as a quarter-finalist. Khachanov ended the 2023 season ranked No. 15, his best finish since 2018.
8. Alexander Zverev (6 feet 6 inches / 1.98 m)

World No. 3 Alexander Zverev is among the most accomplished of his generation, with 24 titles including five Masters 1000s, two ATP Finals, and an Olympic gold medal. He was the 2020 US Open, French Open 2024, and 2025 Australian Open runner-up and has been a fixture in the top 10 since 2017.
Despite these relatively good numbers, the elusive Grand Slam trophy remains a distant dream for the German. His passiveness against higher-ranked opponents in crucial matches is his biggest weakness, and it remains to be seen if he can break the curse.
7. Marin Cilic (6 feet 6 inches)
Marin Cilic is regarded as one of the greatest Croatian tennis players of all time, alongside Goran Ivanišević. Cilic has captured 20 ATP Tour singles titles, highlighted by his 2014 US Open triumph, and reached a career-high ranking of World No. 3 in 2018.
He also finished as runner-up at Wimbledon in 2017 and the Australian Open in 2018. Additionally, the Croatian won a silver medal in men’s doubles at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, partnering with Ivan Dodig.
6. Daniil Medvedev (6 feet 6 inches / 1.98 m)

Daniil Medvedev had built a reputation as one of the game’s best, winning his first Grand Slam at the 2021 US Open and finishing runner-up at other Majors. He reached World No. 1 in 2022 and boasts 20 career titles, including six Masters 1000s and the 2020 ATP Finals.
However, since 2023, he hasn’t won a single title, and with every passing tournament, the Russian continues to drop in the ATP rankings. In 2025, he suffered back-to-back first-round defeats at Wimbledon and Roland Garros, raising questions marks on Medvedev’s tennis future.
5. Nicolas Jarry (6 feet 7 inches / 2.01 m)
Nicholas Jarry is one of those players whose career has been marred by injuries. He reached the fourth round at the French Open in 2023. In 2024, he achieved his career-best ranking of #14.
However, the Chilean player missed several weeks of tennis action, suffered plenty of early exits, and eventually lost his place in the top 50. Jarry had an impressive Wimbledon 2025, where he started as a qualifier and reached the fourth round, losing to Cameron Norrie.
4. Christopher Eubanks (6 feet 7 inches / 2.01 m)
Christopher Eubanks had a breakout year in 2023, reaching the Wimbledon quarterfinals and winning his first ATP title at the Mallorca Open. He also made the quarterfinals of the Miami Open as a qualifier and gained recognition for his insightful tennis commentary.
However, in recent times, the American has fallen off the charts, suffering plenty of early exits, and has had to resort to competing in challenger events to improve his game and ranking.
3. Gabriel Diallo (6 feet 8 inches / 2.03 m)
At just 23, Gabriel Diallo has made steady progress on the ATP Tour with his strong baseline game and excellent reach. Diallo’s height allows him to serve effectively and cover the court with ease.
In 2025, the Canadian won his maiden ATP title at Libéma and has had an impressive run at his last four Grand Slam appearances, reaching the second round in all and the third round at the US Open. His latest SW19 heroics earned him a career-best ranking of #38.
2. Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard (6 feet 8 inches / 2.03 m)

Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard is one of the tallest stars on the ATP circuit. Mpetshi Perricard’s height gives him a distinct advantage on serve, and he’s quickly becoming a player to watch as he gains experience and confidence on tour.
At Wimbledon 2025, he broke the record for the fastest serve in Grand Slam history in the 2025 edition of Wimbledon Championships when he launched a 153mph rocket against Taylor Fritz in the first round. Despite the Frenchman’s powerful serving game and a two-set lead, he lost to the American eventually in five sets.
1. Reilly Opelka (6 feet 11 inches / 2.11 m)
Reilly Opelka stands as the tallest active player on tour. The American has four ATP titles and reached the 2021 Canadian Open final. His best Grand Slam result is a fourth round at the 2021 US Open.
He registered a stunning straight-sets win over Novak Djokovic at the Brisbane International 2025. In that event, he reached the final, where he gave a walkover to Jiri Lehecka after leading 4–1 in the opening set.
