Author of one of his worst seasons since the start of his career despite his title at the Masters 1000 in Monte‐Carlo, Stefanos Tsitsipas, beaten this Friday by Alexander Zverev in the quarter‐finals at Bercy, will end the year for the first since 2018 outside the world Top 10.
Asked about his assessment of his season during his time in the mixed zone after his defeat against the German, the Greek suggested that he could recruit one or more people to help him progress. And we inevitably think of a renowned coach while his father, Apostolos, is currently sidelined and is only accompanied by his Davis Cup captain, Dimitris Chatzinikolaou.
“I can’t say that 2024 was an extraordinary year. Certainly not, but I have a good team around me and we are moving in the right direction. I just need to work during the pre‐season, put the right things into my training, work on the things where I'm clearly lacking on the pitch. I have to be patient, because it's not something I'm going to see right away, it's going to take a few months. Hiring people to help me on this journey will definitely come in handy at some point. »
