Early Life
Milos Raonic was born on December 27, 1990, in Titograd, SR Montenegro, SFR Yugoslavia (which is now known as Podgorica, Montenegro). His family left Yugoslavia in 1994 and moved to Brampton, Ontario, Canada, when Milos was 3 years old. His parents, Dušan and Vesna, are both engineers; Dušan has a Ph.D. in electrical engineering, and Vesna earned degrees (including a master's) in computer engineering and mechanical engineering. Raonic has an older sister named Jelena and an older brother named Momir, and his uncle, Branimir Gvozdenović, was the Deputy Prime Minister of Montenegro. Milos speaks Serbian and English fluently. He attended tennis camp as a child, and after the family moved to Thornhill, Ontario, he took lessons with coach Casey Curtis at Richmond Hill's Blackmore Tennis Club, working with him "twice a day, almost every day, for the next nine years." Raonic attended Thornhill Elementary School and Thornhill Secondary School and graduated a year early. He moved to Montreal at age 16 and spent three years at Tennis Canada's National Tennis Centre.
Career
At age 12, Milos competed in his first International Tennis Federation (ITF)-sanctioned event, and two years later, he won his first singles match. In 2006, he won juniors titles in singles and doubles as well as the Prince Cup doubles title (with Vasek Pospisil). During his five years on the ITF Junior Circuit, Raonic's record was 53–30 in singles and 56–24 in doubles. Despite receiving several college scholarship offers, in 2008, Milos decided to instead focus on his professional tennis career while taking finance correspondence courses from Athabasca University. He turned professional in 2008 and played singles and doubles at ATP Challenger and ITF Futures tournaments. At ITF Futures tournaments in 2009 and 2010, he won four singles titles and five doubles titles, and in 2010, he played in the Canadian Open, US Open, Malaysian Open, and Japan Open. At the beginning of 2011, Raonic was ranked #156, and by the end of February, his rank had risen to #37, making him the highest-ranked Canadian singles player in ATP history. That year he won his first ATP title when he defeated James Blake, Xavier Malisse, Fernando Verdasco, and Ričardas Berankis at the Pacific Coast Championships. His #37 ranking earned him direct entry into certain ATP World Tour events and Grand Slam tournaments, and in May, his ranking climbed to #25.

In 2016, Raonic won the Brisbane International, then he had to withdraw from several events due to an adductor injury; later that year, he tore his quadriceps and injured his ankle. Despite being plagued by injuries in 2016, his ranking rose to #3 that year. He tore his hamstring in 2017, which forced him to withdraw from the US Open, and his ranking dropped to #24. Milos made it to the quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2018 and the Australian Open in 2019 and 2020, and he spent most of 2021 struggling with leg injuries.
