Tsitsipa’s statements
“I’m disappointed. I was expecting more things from myself these two weeks. Leaving the tournament in this way definitely hurts me. I will try to think and see the specific things that went wrong and work. I have to give the credit to my opponent, who played very well. He showed devotion throughout the fight and showed that he was a very strong opponent today for me. I wish him the best in this tournament. I think he can do great things. “
As to whether he enjoys tennis:
“In the last two years, what I have encountered and not encountered before it was injuries. At my psychology level they did a lot of damage. There are many different things that happened after these injuries, which made me feel uncomfortable, made me lose some hope in how my body can meet some situations and the demands that are ongoing.
I feel that I was definitely fresher in the past and just trying to find this balance again about how I can go fight with the race feeling as fresh as possible and in the best possible form. I feel that as the years go by, the more I understand how important it is to prepare for great battles in a useful way. “
