Stefanos Tsitsipas is a torchbearer of Greek Tennis and is also a player who can be one of the future stars of the game. The 21-year-old has caught everyone’s eye with some fine performances and has the ability to surprise some of the big stars.

Tsitsipas has the ability to play long rallies and his deceptive moves can trouble his opponents during rallies. Tsitsipas made it to the final of the Madrid Open last month where he lost to Novak Djokovic.

He also made it to the semi-finals of the Rome Masters losing to Rafael Nadal. Tsitsipas also made it to the Australian Open semi-finals this year by beating Roger Federer in the quarterfinals..

The 21-year-old can produce some powerful groundstrokes. Tsitsipas is equally good at playing long rallies but tends to get erratic while playing against top-ranked players.

He finished runners-up in the finals of the Barcelona Open last year in April and in the Canadian Open in August last year. Tsitsipas lost to Stanislaus Wawrinka of Switzerland in this month's French Open quarter-finals.

Though Tsitsipas has shown lots of promise, the 21-year-old needs to develop the temperament to play against some top ranked players and more Grand Slam appearances will surely benefit him.
