Stefanos Tsitsipas significantly helped the national tennis team qualify for the World Group I promotion playoffs for the Davis Cup with his two wins against Tunisians Aziz Dougaz and Skander Mansouri. After the qualification of the “blue and white”, the top Greek tennis player “uploaded” on Twitter a video of the celebrations of the national team, while explaining the meaning of the word pride, as well as the symbolism of the Greek flag.

Specifically, the 24-year-old writes in the first tweet: “Pride (noun): a deep feeling of dignity, importance, history, heritage and one’s roots. Let’s go to Greece”.

In the second “tweet”, Tsitsipas, who is No. 6 in the world ranking, states: “The flag of Greece has nine stripes for the nine syllables of a Greek phrase that means ‘Freedom or Death.’ The blue color represents the sea and the white represents the waves.”
