Stefanos Tsitsipas has a rather tough first-round match at the US Open, where he will face Milos Raonic. The Greek sensation has taken the strong decision not to have his mother and father in his player’s coaches during the last slam of the season in order not to interfere with the work he has been doing with Mark Philippoussis. According to this video, Stefanos seems to be in fantastic form.
