2025: Historic debut and first win at the Australian Open, top 200
[edit]
Habib became the first Lebanese player, male or female, to qualify for the main draw of a Grand Slam in the Open Era, defeating Patrick Kypson, Tseng Chun-hsin and Clément Chidekh in the qualifying competition of the Australian Open.[17][18][19] Ranked No. 219, he then defeated Bu Yunchaokete in the first round to become the first Lebanese player to win a match in the main draw of a Major. As a result he moved more than 50 positions up and reached the top 200 in the singles rankings at world No. 166 on 27 January 2025.[20][21] Habib lost to Ugo Humbert in the second round.[22]
