Milos Raonic was born on December 27, 1990, in what was then Yugoslavia. He started playing tennis at the young age of eight at the Blackmore Tennis Club in Ontario. His family, who placed a high emphasis on education, instilled in him the value of hard work and dedication.
Raonic turned pro in 2008, quickly making a name for himself on the ATP tour. In 2013, he achieved a top ten ranking, becoming the highest-ranked male singles player in Canada since computer tracking began in 1973. One of his most notable achievements was reaching the finals of the 2016 Wimbledon tournament.
One of Raonic's first breakthroughs came when he earned his first ATP victory at the 2011 SAP Open. This win marked the beginning of a successful career filled with numerous accolades and accomplishments.
In the 2012 London Olympics, Raonic made history alongside Jo-Wilfried Tsonga when they set an Olympic record for the longest match. Although their achievement was impressive, it was soon surpassed when Roger Federer and Juan Martin del Potro played an even longer match just three days later.
Apart from his tennis career, Raonic has also been in the spotlight for his romantic relationships. In 2014, he started dating Danielle Knudson, adding another dimension to his public persona.
As a player known for his powerful serve and aggressive playing style, Raonic has garnered a strong following of fans and supporters. His journey from a young boy with a racket to a top-ranked professional tennis player serves as an inspiration to many aspiring athletes around the world.
