“My Dosage of Inspiration”: Stefanos Tsitsipas Reveals His Liking for Will Smith

World No.5 Stefanos Tsitsipas is one of the hot favorites for the Miami Open 2021 crown. The City of Miami is one of the largest cities in the USA and thus has a lot of movies based on it. Tsitsipas is a fan of English movies, and recently he revealed that he is a fan of popular Hollywood actor Will Smith.

Tsitsipas showed his admiration for Will Smith after he signed the camera lens and wrote, ‘Bad Boys’, referring to the actor’s hit film series ‘Bad Boys’. Tsitsipas did it after his second-round victory at Miami Open 2021.

“Well, I got asked the other day whether I’m a Bad Boys fan or Miami Vice fan, and I happen to be Bad Boys. I prefer Will Smith 100% more,” Tsitsipas said.

Bad Boys is a film series based in Miami, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence who are part of the Miami Police Department. The film is of the genre of action-comedy, and Tsitsipas loves the movie.

Tsitsipas revealed that he was once asked whether he was a ‘Bad Boys’ fan or a ‘Miami Vice’ fan. Miami Vice is another action thriller based around Miami starring Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx. Tsitsipas chose Bad Boys over Miami Vice because it had Will Smith.

Furthermore, the reason why he wrote Bad Boys was that the movie is based in Miami and he claims he got inspiration from it.

“It came to my mind, you know, Miami is a place that’s related to that, and that’s where I got my dosage of inspiration.”

In the absence of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer, Tsitsipas has entered the tournament as the second seed in Miami. Up until the third round, he has looked good. His third-round opponent, Kei Nishikori, stretched him a bit, but he came out victorious in three sets. Next, he will play 24th seed, Lorenzo Sonego.
