Not so long ago, coach Mark Philippoussis and Stefanos Tsitsipas announced that they had split. The world number 5 lamented that he was struggling to follow the indications of both his father, Apostolos, and Philippoussis. However, it seems there was a U-turn in Tsitsipas’ team, with Mark Philippoussis currently coaching Stefanos in Los Cabos.
According to SDNA, Philippoussis will coach Stefanos Tsitsipas without the presence of Apostolos in all tournaments, with the exception of the slams, when Stefanos’ father will join the team. Nevertheless, there is still uncertainty about this deal, and it will be interesting to see what is going to really happen.
