Tsitsipas not playing singles unless "100%" at ATP Cup: "There's no reason for me to go out there and play"

Stefanos Tsitsipas played in the doubles rubber today for Greece at the ATP Cup but withdrew from the singles without playing.
This all stems from his recent elbow surgery as he looks to protect himself ahead of the Australian Open and while he is feeling good again, he admitted he won't play unless he's 100%.
"I'm truly relieved that I'm able to feel normal again after years and years of suffering. The concern was kind of something that I expected, but it's not serious. I'm just trying to protect it," he said.
"I've been using some muscles that I haven't been able to use before and it takes a little bit of time to get into the rhythm and get to the level I want to.
"If I'm not able to perform at 100%, for me there's no reason for me to go out there and play."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
