With the aim of taking another step towards conquering his first Grand Slam and more specifically the qualification to the semi-finals of the Australian Open, o Stefanos Tsitsipas is ready to fight today (24/1) his own battle with him Jiri Lehetska!
THE super star of our country is theoretically much higher than No.7 in the world ranking, which before this tournament started he had no victory on a mainboard Grand Slam, but he has to be very careful.
The Greek tennis player’s match will be the last on the center court, and will be held after the game between Pegula and Azarenka. Which means that the match will logically start at noon on Tuesday, that is, with a… rough estimate around 12 o’clock.
If he qualifies, it will be for the third year in a row! In the next round he is expected to face the winner of the match between Karen Khachanov and Sep Cord.
We remind you that the 24-year-old tennis player has already “captured” revenues of 352,000 euroswhile if he defeats Jiri Lehetska and qualifies for the semi-finals, he will win overall 587,000 euros. If he reaches the final and loses, he will collect 1.03 million euros, while if he wins the first Grand Slam of his career, he will win 1.887 million euros!
“I’m playing my game. Titles come when I play well. When you can play well, the rest comes naturally, it’s the normal flow of things. We all have pressure when we play. Every time it’s a different race, with different conditions, a different player against us. This is what we focus on. I don’t think many players think about the future, it’s a sport where you have to stay in the present, otherwise your mind travels and makes up scenarios and situations. And that’s no way to get the best performance.”, he said among other things for today’s match and the tournament in general.
