Tennis career[]

2017: First ATP doubles title[]

Otte made a remarkable run at the Qingdao Challenger, where he reached the final both in the singles (as a qualifier) and in the doubles tournament.[1]

He won his first ATP Challenger Tour doubles title at the Garden Open in Rome, partnering Andreas Mies. A few weeks later, he won his first Challenger singles title in Lisbon.

2018–2020: Grand Slam debut, Challenger tour success[]

Otte made his Grand Slam main draw debut at the 2018 French Open as a lucky loser but despite winning the opening set he lost in the first round to Matteo Berrettini.[2]

He won his first singles match on the ATP Tour at the Stockholm Open, defeating Jürgen Zopp in the first round.

Otte qualified again for the main draw at the 2019 French Open as a lucky loser and reached the second round by defeating Malek Jaziri. He lost in the second round to 3rd seed Roger Federer.

2021: Three consecutive Grand Slam qualifications, US Open fourth round[]

Otte qualified for the main draw at the 2021 French Open for a third time in his career. He lost to compatriot Alexander Zverev in the first round, despite winning the first two sets.[3]

He also qualified for the 2021 Wimbledon Championships main draw for the first time in his career. In the first round Otte won only the second 12–12 singles tiebreak since that rule began two years ago, beating fellow qualifier Arthur Rinderknech 4–6, 6–3, 6–2, 6–7(5), 13–12(2) in almost 4 hours over two days,[4] the other match being the Djokovic-Federer 2019 final, when Djokovic won the final set 13-12(3).[5] In the second round, Otte was defeated by Andy Murray in a closely fought five-set match on Centre Court, 6-3, 4-6, 4-6, 6-4, 6-2.[6]

He qualified for his third consecutive Grand Slam main draw in 2021 at the 2021 US Open also for the first time in his career.[7][8] He reached the fourth round for the first time at this Major and in his career defeating 20th seed Lorenzo Sonego, Denis Kudla and Andreas Seppi.[9][10] He is the third of a trio of qualifiers who reached the fourth round for the first time since the tournament began keeping qualifying records in 1982. It also marked the first time at any Grand Slam tournament that three male qualifiers reached the second week since the 1995 French Open.[11]
