Valentin "Val" Vacherot was born into a family of tennis players, a cousin of the top French player Arthur Rinderknech. Val skied in his youth before becoming a tennis player, starting at age 9. He trained under Bernard Balleret, father of his half-brother and fellow ATP player Benjamin Balleret. During his college years, Val played 2 seasons alongside Arthur, reaching the semi-finals of the NCAA Championships. In 2025, Vacherot won his first Masters 1000 tournament at the Shanghai Masters, defeating players such as Holger Rune, Novak Djokovic, and none other than his cousin Arthur at the finals to become the lowest-ranked and first-ever Monegasque player to ever take the Shanghai title. A true Monacon native to the bone, his favorite tournament is the Monte-Carlo Masters at his home turf and likewise clay is his favorite court surface to play on.
