ATPTour.com takes a look at five things to know about the 21-year-old Frenchman.

His success hasn’t been limited to Challengers, though. Humbert defeated Borna Coric en route to his maiden ATP Tour semi-final this February on home soil in Marseille.
2. Humbert Joins Rare Company This Fortnight
Prior to this season, Humbert had never played a professional match on grass. But with his grass-court run, he became the 43rd man in the Open Era to make the Round of 16 in their Wimbledon debut. Only five other players have accomplished this in the past 10 years.

3. He Also Hits The Right Notes Off The Court
Music has been an essential part of Humbert’s life since the age of five. Playing piano has provided an outlet for the Frenchman to disconnect off the court that has ultimately benefitted his tennis.
"I love music and I play piano and guitar. It is a big part of my life,” said Humbert. "When I am at the [French Tennis] Federation, they have a piano there for me. It helps me to focus and relax, even on the court. It is important to have something like this outside of tennis."

4. He's In Contention To Qualify For Milan
Humbert looks to make his debut this year at the Next Gen ATP Finals in Milan. He currently sits at ninth place in the ATP Race to Milan, but will move into one of the seven qualifying positions if he can beat Djokovic. A loss on Monday will put him in eighth place.
5. Humbert Backs Himself Against Djokovic
Some players might be content with their best Grand Slam result and the opportunity to play Djokovic. But with his strong results this season, Humbert believes he has the game to dethrone the defending champion.
"I would like to play my game, and yes, I have the chance,”said Humbert. "If not, I'm not coming on the court.”

Also on the bottom half of the draw, #NextGenATP Frenchman Ugo Humbert upset home favourite David Goffin, the second seed, 6-3, 6-1 in 68 minutes. He will next face fifth seed Guido Pella.

"It wasn't easy, because he's a nice player. He was at home," Humbert said. "I [wanted] to keep my focus and I did it, so I'm really happy. It's a nice victory."

Goffin had an opportunity this week to jump into the Top 8 in the ATP Race To London by winning the title. But instead, Humbert bolstered his hopes of booking a spot at the Next Gen ATP Finals after missing out on the 21-and-under season finale by one spot last year. He began the week in eighth place in the ATP Race To Milan.

"I would like to play my game, focus on what I have to do and don't forget that I would like to go to Milan," Humbert said. "I'm going to play my game and we'll see."
