Career

2023

In January 2023 Onclin reached the semifinals of the 2023 BW Open in Mons where he lost to eventual champion and compatriot David Goffin.[4] In May 2023 he beat the higher-ranked Elias Ymer at a challenger event in Bordeaux.[5] At the 2023 French Open he defeated Nicholas David Ionel in straight sets in the first round of qualifying before losing to Argentine Thiago Agustin Tirante in three sets.[6] Onclin got his revenge over the Argentine in the qualifying at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships, winning in straight sets during his first ever grass-court summer, as his junior years coincided with the grass-court cancellation due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]

In October 2023, he received a wildcard in doubles for the European Open in Antwerp, alongside compatriot Michael Geerts.[8] At the same tournament, in the qualifying singles competition, he defeated higher-ranked American Maxime Cressy.[9]
