WATCH: Stefanos Tsitsipas Has The Eye of The Tiger as He Trains Hard Ahead of Australian Open 2022

Stefanos Tsitsipas is one of the top players in the ATP. Many consider him to be more than capable of winning Grand Slams on a regular basis too. In fact, Tsitsipas is also the highest-ranked Greek player in history.

In tennis, one does not become a great player without also having a great coach. Thus, it is only understandable that Stefanos has one of the most popular coaches in the world. Tsitsipas is a student at the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy in France, and his coach is none other Patrick Mouratoglou himself.

In fact, Mouratoglou coaches both Tsitisipas and 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams! That is certainly as elite as a classmate could get for the Greek World No. 4.

Stefanos Tsitsipas and his insane training regimen in Dubai

Ahead of the 2022 tennis season that is set to begin in Australia, Tsitsipas has been hard at work in Dubai. Dubai is one of the four training centers that the coaching academy has across the world.

Today, the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy, on their official Instagram handle, shared a video of Stefanos Tsitsipas. The Greek star is currently at the academy’s Dubai center, training hard before the season arrives.

In fact, the account even had a hilarious caption to go along with the video, titling it “Pre-TSI-son,” playing on Tsitsipas’ name.

The video is a quick montage of him sprinting and exercising, where he is doing split box lunges and skips. In another part of the video, he takes a shot on the court while shirtless, in cinematic slow-motion. Moreover, one of the most influential songs of all time, ‘Eye of the Tiger’ by Survivor, is playing as the background music.

Furthermore, the Greek is also seen doing Romanian Deadlifts, looking focused and forward. Finally, we see him doing quick sprints against another student at the academy.

Clearly, the Greek is set on making 2022 an even better season for him than this one.

A new, trifold season

After withdrawing from the ATP finals due to an elbow injury, Tsitsipas’ season certainly ended on a low note. However, it was still a great season for him, where he won two titles and reached his first French Open final. Moreover, he even reached the World No. 3 ranking this year, before slipping back to No. 4.

Looking forward to his next season, the Greek told Eurosport that he is happy about the hill he has to climb. “Overall I’m happy with where I stand and I think I’m going to have to take an extra step and try and aim for even higher next year,” said Tsitsipas.

In fact, the Greek is confident that his season next year will be ‘three times’ better than 2021, in his own words. Do you think 2022 will finally be the year Stefanos Tsitsipas wins his first major?
