August Holmgren (born 22 April 1998) is a Danish professional tennis player. He has a career high ATP singles ranking of world No. 197 achieved on 21 November 2024 and a doubles ranking of No. 296 achieved on 17 July 2023. He is currently the No. 2 Danish player.[1]
Holmgren has represented Denmark at the Davis Cup on four occasions, making his debut in 2017.
Holmgren played five years of college tennis for the San Diego Toreros from 2017 to 2022, receiving numerous West Coast Conference (WCC) honors. He was the nation's top-ranked player after winning the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) National Fall Championships in late 2021, and he finished his college career as the 2022 NCAA Singles Championship runner-up to Ben Shelton.[2]
Holmgren made his ATP debut at the 2021 San Diego Open after receiving a lucky loser spot into the main draw after third seed Félix Auger-Aliassime withdrew. There, he lost to former world No. 3 Grigor Dimitrov in straight sets.[3] [4] [5]
In July 2024, Holmgren won his maiden Challenger title in Pozablanco, Spain, defeating top seed Antoine Escoffier in the final. Holmgren was the first Danish Challenger titlist since Holger Rune in 2022.[6] Two weeks later, on 5 August 2024, he reached the top 175 in the singles rankings at world No. 167 following another Challenger title at the 2024 Porto Open.[7]
