Meet Gojowczyk, the man with the trickiest name

Published Feb 27, 2018

It isn’t just Denis Shapovalov’s name causing headaches for fans to pronounce, German Peter Gojowczyk is quite a challenge to say as well.

The world No. 51 had a great run last week at the Delray Beach Open, but despite his success, fans still couldn’t quite get his name right.

The 28-year-old earned impressive wins over a slew of Americans including John Isner, Reilly Opelka, and Steve Johnson en route to his first final of 2018.

Gojowczyk came up just short of his second career title, falling in the championship match to 20-year-old Frances Tiafoe.
