‘Trying to Leave the Planet’ – Stefanos Tsitsipas Takes a Sarcastic Dig at Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos

With the tour entering the clay-court season, Stefanos Tsitsipas will undoubtedly eye a repeat of his performance last year on the red surface. Last year on clay, the Greek won two titles. He was also a runner-up on two occasions, one of which being the French Open. Looking in good shape, the 23-year-old has already marked his presence this year on clay by successfully defending his Monte Carlo crown.

He is currently in the Spanish capital, looking to win his second clay-court title of the season at the Madrid Open. In his busy schedule, Tsitsipas recently took out some time to make a headline through his Tweet. Taking to his Twitter, World No. 5 took a sarcastic jab at the two richest people in the world. Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos.

Tsitsipas takes a jab at Musk and Bezos

Looking at the World’s richest list, it is widely visible that the Founder and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, and the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, are adding to their wealth every second. As of 9 AM, 5th May, Elon Musk has a net worth of $24 Billion. On the other hand, Jeff Bezos has a current net worth of $150 Billion.

One of the common hobbies shared by the two richest people in the world is travelling. However, their travelling doesn’t even come to what a travelling for an average person means. Both billionaires want to travel to space. It is their goal, as the two have their own space travel companies. While Musk owns SpaceX, Bezos on the other hand has Blue Origin.

Even though the majority of the world might be impressed with their vision, that doesn’t seem to be the case with Tsitsipas. The Greek grace feels that the two should focus on fixing earth before leaving it.

Yesterday, the 1st of May, Tsitsipas took to his Twitter uploading a tweet. In the tweet, he took a sarcastic dig at the two richest men saying, “Two of the richest people on earth are trying to leave the planet, not fix the planet.”
