Stefanos Tsitsipas mocked former tennis players Andy Roddick and Monica Puig after posting a tweet reflecting on the round shape of pizza, which is unusually packed in a square box and eaten in triangular slices:
"We put round pizza in a square box and eat it in triangles," Tsitsipas wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Former world No. 1 Andy Roddick and former Olympics Golden medalist Monica Puig came across the tweet while covering the Miami Open for Tennis Channel. Steve Weissman asked Roddick to share his thoughts on Tsitsipas' reflection.
"Not something that I've ever really put much time into thinking about. Umm, it all ends up in the stomach, it doesn't really matter how he gets there," Andy Roddick replied.
On the other hand, Monica Puig added to the discussion that there are restaurants that serve pizza slices in square shapes, while Roddick sarcastically mentioned that they deserve an Emmy award for the discussion:
"What about the places that do cut up the pizza into square slices? Very philosophical but I have my question marks," Puig said.
"I'm a New York-style guy... and I say this every once in a while, Steve. I will be stunned if we don't win an Emmy for this segment," Andy Roddick said.
On the other hand, Monica Puig contributed to the conversation by mentioning that there are restaurants that serve pizza slices in square shapes, while Roddick sarcastically suggested that their discussion was worthy of an Emmy award:
"Looks like someone's trying to solve the Bermuda Triangle mystery. One pizza slice at a time guys," Stefanos Tsitsipas wrote.
