American star stuns with suitcase action after racing across Europe to Challenger match

The 25-year-old tennis player arrived for his match with his suitcase after travelling from one tournament to another in less than 24 hours. On Saturday, Seggerman lost his doubles final alongside Poland’s Szymon Walkow to Guido Andreozzi and Theo Arribage 2-6, 1-6 at the Challenger in Szczecin, Poland.

Seggerman traveled from Poland to France in a very short time, more than 1,600 kilometers (over 1,000 miles), taking two flights, a train and a car to get to the qualifying round of the St. Tropez Challenger.

According to journalist Damian Kust, the American player was scheduled to leave his hotel in Poland at 4:30 a.m. to fly to Marseille, with a stopover in Berlin. After landing in France, he needed to take a train to reach a location where tournament officials could pick him up.

The rush did not allow Seggerman to stop at his hotel, so he headed straight to the course with his suitcase, and the ChallengerTour cameras captured his remarkable arrival.

His efforts paid off as he claimed a win against local player Arthur Reymond in the first round of qualifying. However, in his second match against Eliakim Coulibaly, Seggerman was unable to finish the competition and was eliminated with a score of 1-6 and 2-2.
