With back-to-back Top 10 wins over Hubert Hurkacz (No. 10) and Andrey Rublev (No. 9) in Astana in the last two days, Stefanos Tsitsipas has not only reached his sixth ATP final of the year (and the 23rd of his career), he’s also hit a pretty big milestone.

He now has 30 career wins over Top 10 players.

The 24-year-old Greek is just the fourth man born in 1990 or later to record 30 career Top 10 wins (after Alexander Zverev, Dominic Thiem and Milos Raonic) and just the second man born in 1995 or later to achieve the feat (after Zverev).

Only 14 active men’s players in total have done it.

ACTIVE MEN’S PLAYERS WITH 30+ CAREER TOP 10 WINS (14):
234: Novak Djokovic
185: Rafael Nadal
105: Andy Murray
59: Stan Wawrinka
42: Alexander Zverev [born in 1997]

Roger Federer, who just retired two weeks ago, had 224 Top 10 wins.

Tsitsipas, who now has a 30-36 career record against Top 10 players, will face No. 7-ranked Novak Djokovic in the Astana final on Sunday.
