Stefanos Tsitsipas expresses his disappointment over his elimination from the French Open at the hands of Carlos Alcaraz. Tsitsipas acknowledges Alcaraz’s exceptional ball quality and ability to construct points, leaving him feeling overpowered and unable to find a solution. He admires Alcaraz’s tennis IQ and smart play, requiring precise play from Tsitsipas.
Despite feeling confident in his form, Tsitsipas acknowledges Alcaraz’s exceptional performance and offers congratulations. Tsitsipas also reflects on Novak Djokovic’s unexpected withdrawal from the tournament due to injury.
Tsitsipas was focused on his own match and practice but was aware of Djokovic’s injury during his match against Alcaraz the previous evening. He admires Djokovic’s ability to compete despite injury and prevail at such a high level and was not overly shocked by his withdrawal, having seen him play through injuries before.
