Youngest ATP Masters 1000 winners

We've compiled a list of the youngest male players to win a Masters 1000 event since its inception in 1990.

The prestigious series currently consists of nine professional tournaments, including: Indian Wells, Miami Open, Monte-Carlo Masters, Madrid Open, Italian Open, Canadian Open, Cincinnati Open, Shanghai Masters and Paris Masters.

5. Jakub Mensik

2025 Miami Open - 19 years, 211 days

Jakub Mensik shocked his childhood idol Novak Djokovic to claim his first ATP Tour title in Miami.

Mensik toppled 24-time Grand Slam champion Djokovic 7-6 (7-4) 7-6 (7-4) in the final of a tournament which was nearly over before it even started as the Czech teenager nursed a knee injury before his first round clash with Roberto Bautista Agut.

Painkillers and physiotherapy helped Mensik overcome the Spaniard prior to toppling sixth seed Jack Draper and third seed Taylor Fitz on his path to the showpiece.

Mensik's Miami triumph capped off an extraordinary 12 months having first broke into the top 100 of the world rankings in February 2024.

4. Holger Rune

2022 Paris Masters - 19 years, 191 days

Another to conquer Djokovic in claiming a maiden ATP Tour title, Holger Rune's path to Paris Masters glory was phenomenal.

Saving match points against a former Grand Slam champion in Stan Wawrinka to prevail in three sets in the first round, Rune enjoyed a far more comfortable outing against 10th seed Hubert Hurkacz as he triumphed in straight sets.

Straight set wins over seventh seed Andrey Rublev and eighth seed Felix Auger-Aliassime sandwiched a walkover win against Carlos Alcaraz ahead of his concluding encounter with Djokovic.

The Serbian claimed the first set but Rune fought back exceptionally to take the honours in the French capital and break into the world's top 10.

3. Carlos Alcaraz

2022 Miami Open - 18 years, 333 days

Carlos Alcaraz followed in the steps of Andre Agassi and Novak Djokovic in achieving his maiden Masters 1000 title in Miami as a teenager.

In his breakthrough year, the Spaniard brushed aside Martin Fucsovics, Marin Cilic and Stefanos Tsitsipas before he was forced to dig deep by Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic in the quarter-finals.

Alcaraz then got the better of Hubert Hurkacz in two tie-breaks to set up a final clash with Casper Ruud, who was vying for a first Masters 1000 trophy of his own but ultimately proved no match as Alcaraz became the youngest winner of the Miami Open.

2. Rafael Nadal

2005 Monte-Carlo Masters - 18 years, 318 days

The undisputed king of the Principality, Rafael Nadal's unprecedented dominance of the Monte-Carlo Masters began in 2005.

Defeating Gael Monfils in the first round, not even he could imagine his triumph over the Frenchman would mark the start of a 46-match win streak at the event, culminating in eight successive titles between 2005 and 2012.

Nadal's supremacy in the tournament saw him drop just nine games in wins over Xavier Malisse, Olivier Rochus and Gaston Gaudio to set up an intriguing semi-final clash with qualifier Richard Gasquet, who had shocked world number one Roger Federer in the previous round.

Powering back from a set down to defeat Gasquet, Nadal went on to lift his maiden Masters 1000 title by conquering Argentine Guillermo Coria 6-3, 6-1, 0-6, 7-5.

1. Michael Chang

1990 Canadian Open - 18 years, 157 days

After becoming the youngest Grand Slam men’s singles champion of the Open Era at the 1989 French Open, Michael Chang etched his name into the record books again a year later as he claimed his first Masters 1000 title at the Canadian Open.

Entering the tournament in the second round, the New Jersey ace dispatched Broderick Dyke and David Wheaton with a minimum of fuss before a mouth-watering quarter-final clash with world number one Andre Agassi saw Chang battle from a set down to win 4-6 7-5 7-5.

Another top 10 opponent in Pete Sampras awaited Chang in the semi-finals but once again, the teenage sensation demonstrated his spirit to conquer his compatriot before Chang got the better of Jay Berger in the final, holding his nerve in a deciding set tie-break to win 4-6 6-3 7-6 (7-3).
