Just been watching the highlights of his match vs Junaid, entertaining player:

BH return winner at 6:48

Anyone knows where was Born born? He's currently a coach in Germany as per the video intro.

ps Sorry guys, I know this thread isn't about Djokovic so I'm asking mods to make an exception and keep it here in GM.

You are probably just making fun of his name - which is not completely uncommon in Germany - he was born in Hannover (Lower Saxony) but is living in Cologne.
Played College Tennis at MTSU and Bundesliga for Cologne, so not your typical amateur player.

Off-topic. Born wasn’t born in Belgrade.

He played 4 years of college tennis at MTWU. Is a 6’8 in height. Now works as a coach where he may practice competing against professional players which somewhat explains why he won against a doubles player. Remember because of cornona, players don’t play full sets. Wonder if he can remain as competitive during live matches. In any case Junaid is just a doubles player.

Cheers, that makes more sense as to how he was able to hold his own vs Junaid. Your random club player would get dismantled against a doubles player of that level.
