Playing career

[edit | edit source]

He made his Davis Cup debut for Estonia in 2014, winning the only rubber he played that year. In 2015, Raisma again played the one rubber, this time in doubles, but again he was victorious.[2] He gained his first ATP Point in 2015 at the Estonian Open, where Raisma defeated Italian Giorgio Ricca 6-3, 7-5.[3]

By 2016, he was established as Estonia’s No. 2 player behind Jurgen Zopp and played in three of Estonia’s four ties in Europe Zone Group III of the Davis Cup. He won all three singles rubbers he played, without dropping a set as Estonia sealed promotion into Europe/Africa Zone Group II for 2017.[2]

Raisma won the 2016 Wimbledon Championships – Boys' doubles title alongside Greek player Stefanos Tsitsipas. In doing so, he became the third Estonian to triumph in a grand slam tournament after Toomas Leius at the 1959 Wimbledon junior tournament, Kaia Kanepi at the 2001 French Open.[4]

In 2017, his coaching staff was joined by the Italian head coach of the Jarkko Nieminen Academy, Frederico Ricci.[5]

Coaching career

[edit | edit source]

In 2023, he coached Oliver Ojakäär as he made his junior grand slam debut at the 2023 Australian Open, and later that year when he won the boys' doubles at the 2023 US Open alongside Max Dahlin of Sweden, at Flushing Mesdow, New York.[6][7][8]
