WATCH! Stefanos Tsitsipas classy after a tough loss at the US Open

Stefanos Tsitsipas suffered an early exit from the US Open but he showed his humble nature by signing autographs for the fans after the match.

Tsitsipas Signs Autographs

When Swiss qualifier Dominic Stricker upset Stefanos Tsitsipas in the US Open second round in a five-set thriller, the Greek acknowledged his current form was simply “not good enough” as his bad streak continued with yet another early departure from the tournament.

Tsitsipas was devastated by his early departure from Flushing Meadows, but he continued to sign autographs for the spectators.

After losing to Stricker at the US Open, Stefanos Tsitsipas explains why he stood by to sign autographs for the fans. He said in the press conference: “It’s not an easy thing to stay there. I saw the little kids’ faces. It touched my heart bc I was in their position once upon a time. I really looked up to players like me on this occasion.”

He added: “I consider myself someone players look up to. Probably not as much as Federer, Rafa, or Djokovic, but I’m somewhere there in the substitutes. It felt good. Although inside of me, the 1st thing I wanted was to leave the court & clear my thoughts. I had to do it. I hope I made people happy.”
