In the battle of the Miami Open, he is preparing to throw himself Stefanos Tsitsipaswanting to present a much better image than the one he presented in Indian Wells and hoping that he will not be so affected by the injury that he is trying to fully overcome.
In addition, he talked about his goals ahead of the big tournament, he was happy about the successes of Alkarath and Medvedev, and he also talked about his life off the court.
What Tsitsipas said in detail:
In preparation for the Miami Open: “Everything is improving and I’m heading in the right direction. Hopefully I can play pain free and just be able to go out and show something different from Indian Wells. I hope I play and don’t think too much about my hand”.
On his goal ahead of the tournament: “My health is the most important thing I could have in tennis. When I feel healthy, everything falls into place. I enjoy myself on the pitch, I get creative, I can play my game and I feel like nothing can go wrong. That’s my goal in this tournament, just to play pain-free and see how my arm responds these next few days.”.
On how it feels to see tennis players of his generation, like Alkarath and Medvedev, star: “I’m happy for them”.
On his life off the field: “I’m very open to being a bit more relaxed and not so strict on myself in recent years, compared to him three or four years ago when I started. I was extremely disciplined. Not that I’m not now, but sometimes I can give up. For example, I might spend two whole weeks locked in my room and not going anywhere. I allow myself a bit more freedom now and I think it has benefited me a lot and given me a chance to grow as a person as well and not be 100% focused on tennis every week.”.
