Constant Lestienne (French pronunciation: [kɔ̃stɑ̃ lɛstjɛn]; born 23 May 1992) is a French professional tennis player. He reached his highest ATP singles ranking of world No. 48 on 6 February 2023 and his highest doubles ranking of No. 250 was achieved on 12 June 2023. He has won eight ATP Challenger singles titles. In addition, he has won five singles titles and three doubles titles on the ITF Circuit.[2]
Career
[edit | edit source]2015: ATP Tour debut
[edit | edit source]Lestienne reached his first career ATP Tour singles main draw at the 2015 Estoril Open after winning two singles qualifying matches. He lost in the first round to Pablo Carreño Busta.
2016: First challenger title, betting scandal and ban
[edit | edit source]In May 2016, Lestienne won his first ATP Challenger Tour tournament in Ostrava.
In September 2016, Lestienne was suspended for seven months and fined $10,000 by the International Tennis Federation for betting on tennis matches. The Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU) in cooperation with French online gambling regulator ARJEL found that Lestienne had bet on 220 tennis matches from February 2012 to June 2015. None of these matches were his own. Half of the ban was suspended, and his fine would be cut in half if he assisted the TIU.[3][4]
2017: Grand Slam debut in doubles
[edit | edit source]He made his Grand Slam main draw debut at the 2017 French Open after receiving a wildcard to the doubles main draw with Corentin Moutet. They defeated Dustin Brown and Lu Yen-hsun in the first round, but were defeated by Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecău in the second round.[5]
2021-2022: Four Challengers, Top 75, first ATP semifinal

On August 1, 2022, Lestienne entered the Top 100 at World No. 90, following two ATP Challenger Tour titles in Spain in July 2022 and two more finals in the same year. He won his third Challenger in Vancouver in August and reached the top 75 in the rankings on 22 August 2022.
In September 2022, Lestienne reached his first quarterfinal on the ATP Tour at the San Diego Open defeating Brandon Holt and sixth seed Alejandro Tabilo. He entered the top 70 in the rankings on 26 September 2022 at world No. 68.[6] Lestienne followed this by reaching his first semifinal at the 2022 Tel Aviv Open defeating seventh seed compatriot Adrian Mannarino,[7] Emil Ruusuvuori[8] and fourth seed Maxime Cressy in the quarterfinal, his first win against a player in the Top 50.[9]
2023: Major & Masters singles debuts, first Major win & top 50
