“My father is now on leave, I gave him time to rest. He’s been taking time off since I was 12! I think it’s healthy for him to stay away from the Tour for a while and come back refreshed.
Parents are often emotionally charged and I understand that completely. I may not be a parent, but I can imagine how hard it is to watch your child give it their all and go through so much during a race.
I love him and want him to continue to be a part of this journey we’ve built together, he’s not going anywhere. He is still with us and still follows our path and our journey”he mentioned about his father, and then he also talked about Mark Filippoussi.
“It’s time to keep exploring for new things. I am open minded and want to learn as much as I can and use it to further my career because at times I have felt stagnant.
And Mark is a parent. He may not be my father, but he has been through many moments in his own career that he can recognize and capture some things better. He is an incredible person. He has helped me a lot and has always been there for me. Even when people didn’t see him around me, he was there for me. He is a great addition to our team.”.
THE Stephanos will make his Montreal singles debut tomorrow (9/8), against the experienced Frenchman, Gael Monfils!
