ABOUT ABHISHEK

 

Driven By Passion,
Defined By Legacy.

"For me, greatness is about representation, being the first in a meaningful way, so that when young people in Nepal think about tennis, maybe for the first time they hear about it from someone who looks like them, speaks like them, and represents them. I want future generations to never question whether they belong in the sport.

Greatness is opening doors for others, making the road a little easier so the next generation can build upon the shoulders of those who came before them."
