The 2022 season is over and it’s time to have a look at the best points of the year. According to the Spanish ATP Twitter account, one of the best winners of the year was from Stefanos Tsitsipas when he was facing Marcos Giron in Majorca.
Giron was in full control of a rally. After a forehand, Tsitsipas found himself wrong-footed. The Greek sensation could just put his racket on the ball awkwardly. Stefanos had a huge stroke of luck. After bouncing in the other court, the ball jumped back over the net, helped by the spin and the wind. Yes, that was a very curious way to win a point.
