Stefanos Tsitsipas was upset by Jack Draper in straight sets on Wednesday in Montreal. Stefanos looked quite nervous and he was part of a rather shocking moment in the first set. Tsitsipas was already 1-3 down when he had a rather easy overhead very close to the net. Jack was far away with no chance of winning the point. For strange reasons, Tsitsipas smashed the overhead rather violently at the British guy to also lose the point. Here is the video.
