"I think it's great we play in stadiums like this" says Stefanos Tsitsipas about the Laver Cup
ATPFriday, 24 September 2021 at 14:00
The 2021 Laver Cup will be held in TD Garden in Boston that will hold a huge crowd and Stefanos Tsitsipas is happy to be able to play in it.
Stefanos Tsitsipa has always spoken fondly about tennis and his desire to see tennis expand even more as a sport. He underlined the importance of bringing more kids into tennis in Greece while also doing it globally and that is what he talked about most during his Laver Cup. He said:
"I think it's great we get the opportunity to play in Stadiums like this and bring tennis to this type of stadium and crowds that haven't experienced high-level tennis before."
Boston is a famous sports town in America yet the city is hardly known for hosting any tennis events. Tsitsipas expressed that in his comments saying:
"Boston is not known to hold big ATP events before but we are going ot expose our best tennis here. The crowd will not be on our side, we are expecting this. We are going to fight against and try and prove ourselves with our game."
Tsitsipas is right in expecting a hostile environment with Boston fans surely backing Team world here but as he noted they (Europe) as a team will fight against it and we will see who wins. The first match is at 19:00 CET with daily coverage of the event right here.
