Tsitsipas cancelled all his social media apps with Djokovic looming in the AO quarterfinal

Stefanos stays away from the online world to keep his focus on the task.

Stefanos Tsitsipas

Stefanos Tsitsipas is one of the most promising prospects in tennis with the interesting characteristic that he loves being on social media. However, the Greek sensation didn’t hide the fact that being always on social media used to be a distraction from him. He went “offline” for sometimes during last season to be back in style during the winter break.

However, Stefanos is now chasing his maiden slam at the Australian Open and as soon as the competitions resumed he stayed away again from the online world. During a recent interview he revealed: “I have deleted my social media apps, I will try to remain as far as possible.”

H2H. Will Tsitsipas face Djokovic in the quarters?

In order to win the Australian Open, Stefanos may need to go through all the big3. The first one would be Novak Djokovic in the quarters, It’s interesting to notice that the Greek enjoys a positive H2H record against Djokovic (if you count also their latest clash at the Mubadala World Tennis Championship).
