Things may be changing soon for self-described "full-time tennis player, part-time broadcaster" Chris Eubanks. In emotional Instagram post on Monday, the American strongly hinted that the playing portion of his tennis career is ending soon.
"If you had told this little boy from the Southside of Atlanta that he would’ve accomplished all that he did, he wouldn’t believe you," the former Top 30 player wrote alongside photos of himself through the years, beginning as a child.
The late-blooming 6-foot-7 right-hander turned professional after a stellar college career, and made himself one of the sport's feel-good stories in 2023 after years of grinding away on the ATP Challenger Tour. At age 27, he cracked the Top 100 for the first time, reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals, and won his first tour-level singles title in Mallorca, while also cultivating a broadcasting career for himself on Tennis Channel.
