Alex de Minaur has vowed to maintain a rigorous training schedule throughout the Christmas break as he prepares for the upcoming Australian Open. The Australian star, who is hoping to make a strong run in his home Grand Slam, is committed to staying focused and fit during the festive season to ensure he’s at his best for the tournament in January.
De Minaur, currently ranked inside the ATP Top 15, has made significant strides in his career over the past year. Known for his work ethic and relentless on-court speed, the 25-year-old has expressed his determination to take his game to the next level at the Australian Open, where he’ll have the backing of the home crowd.
In a recent interview, de Minaur highlighted his dedication to training through the holidays. “It’s important for me to stay sharp and continue building on the work I’ve done throughout the season,” he said. “Christmas is a special time, but the Australian Open is just around the corner, and I want to make sure I’m ready to give it everything I’ve got.”
The festive period often serves as a break for many athletes, but de Minaur sees it as an opportunity to gain an edge over the competition. “I’ll enjoy some family time, but I’ll also be on the court, in the gym, doing everything I can to prepare,” he added. “It’s about finding that balance and staying disciplined.”
De Minaur’s commitment comes after a successful 2024 season, which saw him reach new heights in the ATP rankings and compete in several deep runs at major tournaments. With the Australian Open marking the start of the 2025 season, de Minaur is determined to capitalize on his momentum and make a deep run in front of his home fans.
The Australian has always thrived on the support of the local crowd, and he’s excited to return to Melbourne Park. “There’s nothing like playing in Australia, with the crowd behind you,” de Minaur said. “It gives me extra motivation to push myself, and I’m ready to leave it all out there.”
As the Australian Open draws near, all eyes will be on de Minaur to see if he can translate his hard work into success on the court. With his relentless drive and strong work ethic, the 2025 season promises to be an exciting one for the Aussie star.
