Top 5 ATP ace hitters for 2025 ft. Taylor Fritz, Reilly Opelka

There’s nothing better for a tennis player than to earn free points during a high-stakes match on the ATP Tour, and there’s really only one way to do it—hit aces.

An ace does win you a point in a flash, but it’s not for free, technically. Players need to couple lightning speed and surgical precision with their swinging arm to send the ball past a returner, who is ready to pounce on anything loose.

Not everyone can produce such quality on a consistent basis, but some who do it for fun, maximising their potential, combined with physical gifts.

Let’s check out the top five players who fired the most aces down their opponents’ court this season.

Alexander Bublik hit 674 aces in the 58 matches he played on the ATP Tour this season to become the fifth-best player in terms of ace hitting.

The 6’5” tall Bublik averaged roughly 11 aces per match. He won four titles this year at the Halle Open, Gstaad Open, Generali Open, and Hangzhou Open, making this season his career's most successful thus far.

Jakub Mensik edged out Bublik by hitting 679 aces to rank fourth on the list. He, however, played eight fewer matches than the Kazakhstani.

Mensik, who is 6’5” too, enjoyed a memorable season this year. He defeated his idol, Novak Djokovic, in Miami to win his maiden Masters 1000 trophy. He reached his peak ranking of World No. 16 earlier in August.

Felix Auger-Aliassime, the 6’4” tall champion from Canada, produced 783 aces in 74 matches to claim the third spot in the tally. His average comes to roughly 10 aces per match.

Auger-Aliassime took home three trophies with his efforts in Adelaide, Montpellier and Brussels. He also climbed up to a career-high ranking of World No. 5. He played a second Grand Slam semifinal of his career at the US Open.

Towering Reilly Opelka comes in second on the list of players hitting the most aces in 2025. He hit 790 aces in 49 appearances on the ATP Tour.

Among the top five, the 6’11” American averaged the highest, recording roughly 16 aces per match. He ended the previous season ranked 293 in the world but finished this year as the World No. 50. He appeared in all four Majors for the first time since 2021.

Taylor Fritz, another 6’5” ATP star, trumped everyone, hitting 867 aces in 74 outings, to take the pole position. On average, he generated nearly 12 aces in every match he played on the tour.

Fritz won two titles in the season. He triumphed at the Boss Open and Eastbourne International to take his overall tally of silverware to 10. Also, he made the semifinals at Wimbledon and quarterfinals at the US Open.
