Nicholas Albek is a Danish tennis journalist working for SpilXperten based in Copenhagen. He has a background in football journalism and worked for several years covering football before shifting his focus to tennis — a sport he also plays himself.
Nicholas has a strong passion for Danish tennisand has followed many Danish players closely over the years. In 2026, he will spend around seven weeks on the road following the tour, and he also runs his own tennis podcast in Denmark, produced in Danish.
In this episode, we dive deep into Danish tennis. We break down the current landscape, discuss the top Danish players and what we can realistically expect from them in 2026, and take a broader look at the sport in Denmark. How popular is tennis? How is it covered by the media? And how well known are Denmark’s top players among the general public?
