Stefanos Tsitsipas to face Thanasi Kokkinakis in US Open first round

·

Greek tennis player Stefanos Tsitsipas will face Greek Australian Thanasi Kokkinakis in his US Open first round.

Kokkinakis is ranked number 84 in the world and will undoubtedly be a tough match.

If Tsitsipas manages to overcome the obstacle of the 28-year-old, then he himself is expected to face the winner of the Borges-Coria pair in the second round of the tournament, while in the third it is very likely that Felix Oze Aliassim will be waiting for him.

In fact, in the event that Tsitsipas manages to reach the round of 16 of the US Open for the first time in his career, then, barring a shocking prospect, he will compete against Medvedev.
