BARCELONA, 5 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Greek tennis player Stefanos Tsitsipas, currently number 11 in the world, will play in the 2024 edition of the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell – Conde de Godó Trophy, which will be held from April 13 to 21 and in which Rafa Nadal is already registered, who will say goodbye of ‘his’ track and club tournament, Carlos Alcaraz and Andrey Rublev.
Godó continues to grow with the confirmation of the participation of the three-time finalist of the tournament, Stefanos Tsitsipas, who in this 71st Conde de Godó Trophy will seek his first title on Barcelona clay.
Tsitsipas joins a Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell 2024 that is “working intensely” to celebrate a very special edition coinciding with the 125th anniversary of the Real Club de Tenis Barcelona-1899, the club that hosts the tournament.
The Greek, who became world number 3 in 2021, is especially good at the Barcelona tournament, where he is the current finalist and will once again be one of the big favorites to lift the title.
“After being a finalist on three occasions (2018 and 2021 against Rafa Nadal and 2023 against Carlos Alcaraz) he hopes to finally achieve victory, at 25 years old,” the organization said in a statement, about a Greek who has 10 titles out of 27. ATP finals played, including the Australian Open (2023) and Roland Garros (2021).
It is already common to see the Greek in Barcelona, where Godó has played since 2018 in one of his favorite tournaments, as he always remembers in the Catalan capital. On the clay of RCTB-1899, in which he debuted at the age of 19, he has accumulated 16 victories for only 5 defeats.
