Stefanos Tsitsipas will play his third ATP 1000 Final in Monte Carlo against Andrey Rublev on Sunday. The Greek Sensation seems to have found the right mentality to approach these tournaments, often having deep runs. He is still struggling to win finals, but he is finding the solution to this.
Stefanos Tsitsipas has been using the help of a psychologist, Kostas Pergantis, for long in order to get the right approach when playing. The world no.5 revealed that he has more sessions with Pergantis recently.
“We have been working together a lot recently. He has helped me with breathing techniques and meditation,” said Stefanos.
Stefanos Tsitsipas will come up against the world no.8 Andrey Rublev in the final on Sunday at 2:30 pm on COURT RAINIER III. Their actual record is 4-3 for Rublev.
Previously, the last time they locked horns, Andrey Rublev won 6-3 7-6(2) in the semifinal in Rotterdam (ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament) on the 6th of March 2021.
