He started with absolute success at the Barcelona Open Stefanos Tsitsipasalong with his teammate Nicolas Mahout.
In just their first collaboration, the Greek-French duo prevailed 7-6(2), 6-4 in the Matthew Middelkup and Andreas Mis and awaits in the quarter-finals the winners of the match between Kuhlhof/Skapski and the Bolelli/Granogers.
This victory was not of minor importance, since it came against Middle Cup who has 14 career doubles titles and the Miss who is a two-time French Open winner. Of course, the Greek tennis player had with him the very experienced Mahout, owner of 5 Grand Slams and 7 Masters 1000 in “doubles”.
The dominance in the first set was very difficult and came after a tiebreak (7-6), while in the second the dominance of the Greek-French duo was much more comfortable, after they led 2-0 in the games after a very early break, finally reaching the important 6-4 win.
THE Tsitsipas makes his debut tomorrow (19/4) also in the singles, where he will face the Argentinian at around 17.00 Pedro Katsin.
