Stefanos Tsitsipas has officially announced his withdrawal from the upcoming Davis Cup tie against Serbia, citing a back injury sustained during the US Open. Despite his desire to support Greece, Tsitsipas emphasized the importance of prioritizing his health.

In a heartfelt message, Tsitsipas stated, “The voice of my heart advised me to strengthen the National Team once more. However, the voice of my body, in an imperative manner, forbids me to compete.”

The 25-year-old star, who played a crucial role in Greece’s success against Romania earlier this year, expressed his regret for missing the event but promised to return stronger. His rehabilitation program will keep him off the court, but Tsitsipas remains optimistic about future matches, vowing to compete again under Greece’s national emblem.

“I wish our national team good luck in the difficult meeting with Serbia,” Tsitsipas wrote, demonstrating his continued support for the team despite his absence.

His presence on the team has been an inspiration, and his absence will surely be felt as Greece faces a challenging tie against Serbia.
