“I was lucky to be approached by Mouratoglou"- Tsitsipas on his beginnings

Stefanos Tsitsipas is one of the most promising talents of men's tennis. The Greek is a stable part of the TOP 10 and adds more and more achievements. However, Stefanos' "big career" started already sooner. At the age of 14-15 he was approached by Patrick Mouratoglou. One of the best coaches in the world and the coach of Serena Williams. And that was another beginning of a lot of big things for Tsitsipas.

“I was lucky enough to be approached by Patrick Mouratoglou when I was fourteen to fifteen years old. I think most of my success has come from being part of the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy. It has helped me so much growing as a tennis player and seeing tennis with another perspective. It’s really difficult to go up to professional tennis and stay in Greece."

"It can be achieved, it can be possible, but it could be two to three times more difficult for someone to develop and pursue a career living in Greece,” Tsitsipas said.
