Stefanos Tsitsipas thinks big in this 2021 season. The Greek tennis player hopes that this year will finally be the year of the conquest of his first Grand Slam and one of his great options to achieve it is Roland Garros.
In an interview with the website of the Parisian tournament, Tsitsipas confessed what his great goal is for this season: to beat Rafa Nadal at Roland Garros. “I want to win a great title in 2021. A great goal would be to beat Nadal on clay or Roland Garros, it would be fantastic. I think everyone wants them, especially me.”
However Tsitsipas knows of the difficulties in defeating Nadal due to the Balearic's fighting ability on the track. “He is a very difficult player to play against, very tough, very consistent and with a great fighting spirit. I consider myself a fighter but he is on another level, he is incomparable. I think it would be a realistic goal, or so I hope, it is not much to ask. “
The Greek was full of praise for Nadal, highlighting the main qualities of the Spanish on the track and his character. “That Rafa is one of the most difficult players to win …. There is something behind that. He hits very hard, anticipates very well and moves very well on the court. He knows how to return, he has impressive agility and the way he works. the one who fights … never gives up and that makes him a very difficult opponent. “
Greek tennis player Stefanos Tsitsipas was the last to comment on Nick Kyrgios and the criticism he's received in recent years for his outlandish episodes on and off the track.
In statements collected by the Australian media The Age, Tsitsipas acknowledges that Kyrgios wants to attract attention, although he does not see anything wrong with it. “Kyrgios has assumed that he is the black sheep of the ATP. He likes to do unpredictable things, get attention, there is no denying it. And that's totally normal, there's nothing wrong with that “
However Tsitsipas believes that players like Kyrgios are necessary in the world of tennis. “He has his own personality, which a lot of people love and others hate and don't understand. I think he's fine and that tennis needs him. It's entertaining, it's fun, and it has something unique and special that other players don't have. “
Finally, the Greek also revealed some anecdotes lived with Kyrgios. “We do not have an intimate friendship, but He makes me FaceTime calls from time to time at random. Sometimes he calls me at one in the morning. I do not get it”.
