Collin Altamirano is an American tennis player from Yuba City, California. Altamirano won the 2013 USTA Boys 18 National Championship as an unseeded player, the first ever to do so, and thus earned a wild card entry into the 2013 U.S. Open. In the final he defeated Jared Donaldson 6-1, 6-2, 6-4.[1] At the 2013 U.S. Open, Altamirano lost to 22-seed Philipp Kohlschreiber of Germany in the first round. Prior to the 2013 U.S. Open, Altamirano had only played in six professional-level matches, all at the ITF Men's Circuit level (commonly referred to as Futures), and had lost all six.[2]
Gear
Altamirano currently plays with the Babolat Pure Drive racquet and Solinco Tour Bite strings, wearing Babolat Propulse 4 shoes.[3]
