Stefanos Tsitsipas had a breakthrough year in 2019.
The Greek sensation started the season in style when he reached the semifinals at the Australian Open after beating the great Roger Federer. He repeated himself against the Swiss Maestro after playing a magnificent semifinal at the ATP Finals. The Greek sensation will end the season ranked no.6.
Tsitsipas being Thiem’s sparring partner
Stefanos will face Dominic Thiem for the title at the O2 Arena. However, it’s interesting to notice that 3 years ago Tsitsipas had the honor to be Dominic’s sparring partner at the very same event while now he will challenge the Austrian for the title.
In that occasion, Stefanos commented:
“A little bit more and I’ll end up playing with all the players from the #ATPWorldTourFinals. Another intense practice today with @adidastennis fellow athlete @domithiem. Great feeling getting all these capacity of improvement every single day, adjusting to such a high level of tennis after every practice session, and most of all getting the chance to be at this amazing event.”
