Career

In 2023, Rocha made his ATP main draw debut after qualifying at the 2023 Estoril Open. He defeated higher ranked players Ryan Peniston, and Máté Valkusz to reach the main draw. It was his first ATP tour qualifying event, having never previously even qualified for a Challenger tournament in 12 attempts. That year, Rocha began being coached by Portuguese former ATP player Pedro Sousa.
Rocha won his maiden Challenger title at the 2024 Murcia Open defeating Nikoloz Basilashvili in the final. He became the fifth player born in 2004 to accomplish the milestone after Luca Van Assche, Arthur Fils, Alex Michelsen and Gonzalo Bueno.

Ranked No. 195, Rocha made his Grand Slam main draw debut at the 2025 French Open as a qualifier and recorded his first major win over fellow qualifier Nikoloz Basilashvili in five sets. He became only the fifth Portuguese man to win a singles match at Roland Garros. Rocha reached a major third round for the first time in his career with an upset over 19th seed Jakub Menšík in five sets.
Having entered qualifying for the 2026 Australian Open, he defeated João Lucas Reis da Silva, before losing to Argentine Marco Trungelliti in the second qualification round.
