Wimbledon: Who Are Alex De Minaur’s Parents?
Alex de Minaur is born in Sydney, Australia to his father, Anibal, and mother, Esther. De Minaur’s father, Anibal, operated an Italian restaurant on Sydney’s George Street and met Esther while she was working as a waitress there.
De Minaur is not their sole offspring. They have five more children: two brothers, Dominic and Daniel, and sisters, Natalie, Cristina, and Sara.
Esther is now a housekeeper, while Anibal closed the family restaurant after two decades of operation. He went on to operate a couple of car washes in Spain(essentially sports).

His parents were always there to support and encourage him, even while they were facing financial difficulties.
His family experienced a financial problem in 2011. It was so terrible that they couldn’t even pay Alex’s travel bills, putting his promising tennis career in jeopardy.
Fortunately, Adolfo Gutierrez, De Minaur’s longtime coach, came to the rescue. He refused to accept any monetary compensation from Alex’s parents in exchange for his training.
This saved Alex’s career at a time when he could have had to give up tennis if training become too expensive.
