By Ben Nagle For Dailymail. Frances Tiafoe has broken into the top 10 of the men's ATP world rankings, in turn becoming the first African-American man to achieve the feat in over 14 years.

He got to the Wimbledon semi-final in and the Australian Open quarter-final in , but only reached the second round at the US and French. Tiafoe has become the first African-American male to reach the world's top 10 in 14 years. Tiafoe, meanwhile, is not yet at the peak of his powers and will hope to continue his hot streak heading into a big few months with Wimbledon and the US Open fast approaching. He reached the semi-finals at Flushing Meadows last year, and recorded a personal best result at the French Open last month by reaching the third round.

American tennis star Frances Tiafoe made his debut in the world top 10 on Monday after his tournament victory on Sunday in the ATP grass-court tournament in Stuttgart, Germany. The win in Stuttgart was not only monumental for Tiafoe personally but for tennis history in general. By winning and moving into the top 10, Tiafoe joins Taylor Fritz to give the United States two Men in the top 10 for the first time since the week of May 7, when Mardy Fish ranked 9th and John Isner ranked.
