Stefanos Tsitsipas Reveals Big Three’s Qualities He Would Steal

Stefanos Tsitsipas is yet to cash in on Grand Slam success. However, with the immense talent in the Greek Upstart, it’s a matter of time before he gets his hands on the big one.

At just 21 years of age, he still has a lot to learn. Most of all, he has three big examples to look up to. The Big three, namely Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, are no strangers to Grand Slam trophies. Over the years, they have gained enough success to act as role models for the upcoming players.

More than everything, they have the ability to convert good performances into championship titles. That’s something that players like Tsitsipas are yet to learn. Tsitsipas is currently participating at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown (UTS).

While he continues on his unbeaten run in the tournament, he gave an interview to tennis majors about what qualities of the Big Three he would Steal.

What did Stefanos Tsitsipas say?

Stefanos Tsitsipas was very clear in his answer. He has pinpointed the exact things that he likes in the legends.

“I’ll just simplify it and say, the aggresivity of Federer, the defense of Nadal and the defense of Djokovic. Those are the things I’m working on, with my shots.”

It’s as if he picked out the best possible qualities of a tennis player. Aggression is a must if a player wants to have any chance of intimidating his opponent and gain psychological victories. On the other hand, a strong defensive game helps to fend off long rallies, especially when your opponent is the one who’s serving.

However, none of that would matter if you’re not patient enough. A tennis player who makes mistakes because of the inability to wait for the correct moment is exactly the one who can’t win titles. Over the years, Novak has created a repository of patient thinking in order to tackle the pressure situations.
