Damir Dzumhur turned a moment of potential chaos into pure highlight-reel magic at last month’s Plava Laguna Croatia Open Umag, claiming July’s Hot Shot of the Month award in spectacular style.

In his quarter-final clash against Titouan Droguet, the Bosnian star found himself in a split-second scramble at the net. After carving a delicate backhand slice, Dzumhur watched as Droguet unleashed a daring ‘tweener from deep in the court, which kissed the net cord and sharply changed direction. But with incredible reflexes and a lightning grip adjustment, Dzumhur pounced and landed a clean winner.

Dzumhur deals with 'tweener trouble in style: 

The rally was classic Dzumhur, who is known for blending speed, anticipation, and court craft into moments that leave fans gasping. The No. 56 player in the PIF ATP Rankings has built a reputation for thriving in cat-and-mouse points, where quick thinking is just as important as quick feet.
