Tsitsipas: “Djokovic the best ever to hold a racket, it’s a privilege to do this in my life”

Deep bow to Novak Djokovic from Stefanos Tsitsipas. The leading Greek tennis player, despite his defeat with 3-0 set from the legendary Serb in the final of the Australian Open, he wanted to acknowledge the superiority of his opponent, characterizing him as the top, while among other things he thanked all those who work with him helping him in everything he has achieved.

Stefanos Tsitsipas’ statements in detail:

“Novak I don’t know what to say I think your achievements speak for themselves the numbers are so big congratulations not only to you and your family. It’s the same way we grew up, I appreciate what you’ve done for the sport, you’ve been better on the court, thank you. I had the privilege of playing very close games, giving my best, against a player who is one of the greatest our sport has ever produced.

He is the best to ever hold a racket. I want to thank you for what you have done for our sport, you push every person involved in our sport to improve. It’s not easy to lose another Grand Slam final, but I always want to come back. I am happy to have supportive people around me who share the same aspirations. It’s a privilege to do this in my life, I thank the Greek fans who make me feel like I’m at home.

Coming back to Australia brings back many positive memories. Thank you to all those who are by my side with your difficult work, we respect it a lot. We may not show it while competing, but we respect it. Of course, we also thank the sponsors. I hope to see you again next year.”
