Stefanos Tsitsipas is the torchbearer of Greek tennis. The 21-year-old has caught everyone’s eye with some fine performances, and he has the ability to surprise the biggest of stars.

Tsitsipas is comfortable playing long rallies, and his deceptive movement can trouble his opponents a lot. He made it to the final of the Madrid Open this month where he lost to Novak Djokovic in the final. He also made it to the semifinals of the Rome Masters last week, losing to Rafael Nadal.

Tsitsipas reached his maiden Slam semifinal at the Australian Open earlier this year, beating Roger Federer along the way. He has a vast amount of talent and is expected to achieve superstar status in the future.

The 21-year-old can produce some powerful groundstrokes, and is very skilled at the net too. He has shown great promise already, but still has a lot of time to develop the temperament to play against the top-ranked players.
