The assessment of the season was made by Stefanos Tsitsipas in his statements after the game with him Zverev in which he suffered defeat and was disqualified from continuing Paris Masters.
The Greek tennis player emphasized that he does not consider the season to have been… amazing but expressed the certainty that he is moving in the right direction.
What Stefanos Tsitsipas said in detail:
“My level of service was poor today, while his was excellent. He plays great tennis, I see a lot of progress in his game, I’m even surprised. He has gotten better. On this surface, the serve makes a big difference and also psychologically it’s not easy when you can’t really put pressure on the serve. I had too many second balls to play and I wasn’t as effective as he was at it».
Taking stock of the season he said:
“I can’t say that 2024 was an amazing year. Definitely not, but I have a good team around me and we are moving in the right direction. I just have to work in the pre-season, put the right things in my training, work on things where I’m definitely lacking on the court. Hiring people to help me on this journey will definitely pay off at some point. I have to be patient because it’s not something I will see right away, it will take a few months».
As for his goals in 2025:
“I won’t focus on specific tournaments, I just want a good 2025, with great results. A season where I can say that “I did great” and “I’m proud of myself”, that I did my best. I can’t say the same for this year».
