Hady Habib has become the first Lebanese player in the Open era to reach a Grand Slam men's singles draw at the Australian Open. Habib advanced through three rounds of qualifying to secure a place in the main draw. The 26-year-old Habib, who was born in Houston, Texas and moved to Lebanon as a child, feels like he's representing the spirit of the Lebanese people. His personal success comes at a difficult time during the war between Israel and Hezbollah.
