David Goffin (French pronunciation: [david ɡɔfɛ̃]) (born 7 December 1990) is a Belgian tennis player. He was born in Rocourt, Liège, Belgium. His breakthrough came when he reached the fourth round of the 2012 French Open as a lucky loser, eventually losing to Roger Federer in four sets. Goffin has defeated several higher-ranked players such as John Isner, Stan Wawrinka, Marin Čilić, Milos Raonic, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Dominic Thiem and Tomáš Berdych, the latter without losing a game. He is the Belgian number 1 male tennis player as of 2017. On February 20, 2017 Goffin reached the ATP top 10, becoming the first Belgian male tennis player to reach this elite level.
As a junior, he compiled a singles win/loss record of 76–40, reaching as high as No. 10 in the junior combined world rankings in July 2008. He took part in only two junior slams, losing in the second round of the French Open and the first round of Wimbledon in 2008.
Goffin won his first match on the ATP tour at the 2011 Chennai open, defeating India's No. 1, Somdev Devvarman. He lost in the second round to Stanislas Wawrinka.
In 2012, he reached the quarterfinals of an ATP World Tour tournament for the first time at the 2012 Chennai Open, after defeating top-50 countryman Xavier Malisse and Andreas Beck.
