Stefanos Tsitsipas, the former number 3 in the ATP rankings has recently drawn quite a lot of criticism after pulling out of the tournament which he called bigger than Slam. The 2019 winner gave a walkover to Holger Rune at the ATP Finals on November 14 just after 17 minutes of the match due to an injury. This led to a flurry of jeering and booing down from the stands. However, this wasn’t the first time he was facing that, and now it seems it wasn’t the last time either. But why?

Tsitsipas recently posted a cryptic tweet just after the shocking exit of Novak Djokovic‘s Serbia from Davis Cup at the hands of Jannik Sinner‘s Italy. While most of the attention was on Djokovic’s uncharacteristic defeat to the 22-year-old Italian. The 25-year-old Greek stole the show of tennis fans with his tweet leading fans to scratch their head out of confusion. Some of them started bashing Tsitsipas for his awkward tweet. Let’s find out what they’ve said.
