Stefanos Tsitsipas wins comeback match after firing his dad

·

Stefanos Tsitsipas faced Jan-Lennard Struff at the Cincinnati Open on Wednesday, August 14 in one of his first matches after dumping father Apostolos as his coach.

Competing at the ATP Masters 1000 event after a tense match and defeat in Montreal, Tsitsipas rallied from a set and a break down to defeat Jan-Lennard Struff 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.

Tsitsipas fought to return across the second and third sets when he converted three of 14 break points he earned leading to a one-hour, 57-minute victory.

“I felt like I was in a great flow state towards the end of the match with my serve,” Tsitsipas said in his post-match interview.

“Immediately my groundstrokes improved, immediately my confidence to come forward and close in improved, so there were a lot of improvements that contributed to my game today.”
