Former player Mark Philippoussis thinks that the new generations of players are very talented but rather soft.
It's something that has been talked about before and he's not the only former player who has made such claims. As anything, it's up for debate but he had a very good view of Tsitsipsa unravelling against Kyrgios despite winning the opening set at Wimbledon.
His comments were made in a talk with the Tennis Channel where he joked that new generations are very soft:
"These guys are talented and incredible athletes, but, my god, are they soft! When I had a short ball, I went right at the guy, always. You say sorry and you move on. Now it's like, you've got to send an email to apologize, and texts and Instagram posts. Go at him again, hit him again."
He also talked about Tsitsipas and many other topics which you can see in the video below.
