Benjamin Hirsch has been playing tennis for 28 years and is known for his two-handed forehand. He played for Duluth High School (2008-2011) and played college tennis at Oglethorpe University (2011-2015). He started playing National tournaments in 2019. He finished 2020 ranked #1 in the South (there were no National Tournaments/Rankings that year). After 2024, Ben will no longer be playing USTA Tournaments, except for the National Grass Championship and National Clay Championship. All of his tournament efforts will be put towards ITF and ATP tournaments. His National Rankings as a result are now likely the highest they will ever be:
Ben has the following USTA Open rankings as of February 2025:
-- #5 in the US in Doubles (#1 in the south, and #1 in Georgia)
-- #45 in the US in Singles (#5 in the South, and #3 in Georgia).
