Stefanos Tsitsipas Australian Open 2021

The famous coach Patrick Mouratoglou is trying to carry Serena Williams towards the 24th Major at the Australian Open, and the first since 2017.

Mouratoglou also found time to watch Stefanos Tsitsipas at Melbourne Park, praising the Greek's performance since the beginning of the season and saying he can win a Major title soon.

"Stefanos is ready; he is playing great tennis at the moment, and I know he's going to win Majors. His high level is extremely high, and he can beat anybody, which he already did - Federer at a Major, Novak at the Masters 1000 level and Rafa on Madrid clay. When he isn't performing at his best, his level wasn't that great in the past; that's why he experienced some early losses at Majors. Over two weeks at a Major event, you have good and bad days.

One of the components you need to have to go all the way is win matches on a bad day. Stefanos tended to panic a bit in those moments, which is a mental and tactical issue. Panicking, he played too fast and flat, gathering more stress on his shoulder with that approach. Changing that, Stefanos now plays with more height and depth while feeling the pressure, making clear improvements in that area.

He played well at the ATP Cup ahead of the Australian Open, overcoming a bad day against Kokkinakis to find his way towards the win. That's a good sign, and I think he is ready to win a Major. It's difficult to say when, but it's a question of time," said Patrick Mouratoglou.
