Stefachoke Tsitsipas
The Greek got scared in the second set against Zverev but he got through it and overall his match was excellent!
Stefanos is in good shape, we saw him play excellent tennis and his shock in the second set against Zverev should not erase his performance. He serves well, makes few mistakes and understands the land so well. His forehand is a delight and hitting Zverev on the ground says a lot about his current level. Next round against Khachanov, the Russian is less adept on the surface but fights like a lion, he struggles in R1 and R2 against good players then beats Medvedev, a player he almost never beats. So yes he takes advantage of his opponent's outburst but we can't sum up his victory with that, he was patient and knew how to put in more when necessary. We can always count on Karen, regardless of the surface or category of the tournament, he rarely misses a match. Tsitsipas leads 7/2 in H2H with only one confrontation on earth, suffice to say that he manages Khachanov well in general and that with the advantage of the surface this time he should get by, right? Well on paper yes, he rounds better, times better and overall his level on earth is a notch above Khachanov. But the Russian is going to fight with his weapons, hang on, get smashed!
